The Boys Run: I toowú klatseen 5K Fun Run will be held on Saturday, Dec. 5 at the Dimond Park Field House.
AWARE, Inc. requests volunteers to assist with the event. Runners and walkers are invited to join Boys Run: I toowú klatseen participants during their 27 laps.
Boys Run: I toowú klatseen is a running program designed to teach boys healthy communication, self-reflection, positive thinking and community building based on Southeast Alaska Native values. For ten weeks, volunteer coaches engage boys in activities and games which build self-awareness and understanding around what it means to be a healthy male and a helpful community member.
The 5K Fun Run highlights lessons learned during the program’s season. Runners are accompanied by running buddies, their families and the community.
