Big Success
Sunday, November 6th, 2022
The Rotary Club of Marblehead had a very successful 5K on Sunday 11/6/22!
150 runners joined together on this beautiful day. They raced through old town on a historic path that began years ago with the Don Humphreys 5K to raise money for Veterans. On this past Sunday, starting at the Boston Yacht Club and ending in a buffet donated by the BYC with foot-long hot dogs and delicious New England Clam Chowder back at the Yacht Club.
Check out our Facebook page for photos and race results.
This year we raised close to $35K and that money will make it possible for every Marblehead school to access the “Inner Explorer” mindfulness program for the next two years!
Congressman, Seth Moulton gave a meaningful talk on the importance of taking care of our mental health right before the race, he said “We want to help equip kids with a set of life skills to deal with anxiety, stress and depression.” And that’s exactly what these 150 runners, sponsors, contributors and the Rotary Club of Marblehead is going to make it possible to do.
Thank you to our Sponsors and to all our Contributors who helped make this 5K event such a phenomenal success!
