Description
- The Lighthouse Loop Half Marathon & 5k, raising money for the ten (10) Volusia County High School Athletic Departments, will be on Sunday, October 30, 2016.
The West Volusia Runners and the Volusia Coastal Runners are teaming up to put on a foot race to support our young athletes and encourage the community to make a difference while improving their own quality of life. The Lighthouse Loop Half Marathon and 5k will raise money for the ten (10) Volusia County High School Athletic Departments will take place on Sunday, October 30, 2016 in the Ponce Inlet area of Volusia County. Each school will receive an equal amount of the proceeds. Our goal is to put on an event that exceeds runners' expectations while raising $30,000 for our school's athletics. This would enable us to give each school's athletic department $3,000!
This community event comes at a time when our young athletes are less apt to participate in group sports due to financial hardship found throughout the area. Developing fit kids for our local community!
