The Ultimate Dog-Friendly 5K Run & Walk! 🏅🐾

It was a delightful morning bursting with hardy New Englanders, camaraderie, and tailwags.   A little rain didn’t dampen the laughter, treats and the winningest champions for kids!   

Thank you for rallying against New England’s weather to bring our educational programs to students who need your winning attitude!
