The Choose Peace 5k Rockland Lake will take place at the beautiful Rockland Lake State Park in Valley Cottage, New York. This scenic trail winds along a flat and wooded terrain for 3 miles around a man-made lake that once supplied fresh ice to New York City in the 19th century.  

 

The Choose Peace 5k supports the Races for Peace organization. Our Goals include:

1.     Strengthen and unify communities through race events across the country.

2.     Increase awareness of the benefits of choosing peace and the value of diversity.

3.     Provide strategies for promoting peace through self awareness, effective communication skills, positive life choices, and conflict resolution.

4.     Build bridges between local law enforcement and communities to increase partnership, cooperation, and mutual respect.

5.     Raise funds for Races for Peace programs, local charities engaged in promoting peace in accordance with the Races for Peace mission, and organizational operations.
