WE RUN FOR THE CAUSE
|
In 2006, the Freedom 5K committee established the Milton Track and Cross Country Remembrance Scholarship. Awarded to an outstanding senior member of the Milton High School track and/or cross country team, the scholarship honors the dedication and unselfishness of our community volunteers.
Mission: Milton's Freedom 5K seeks to provide the greater Milton community with a fun, laid back race that promotes not only the physical benefits of running, but also the camaraderie developed when a group of people sweat together to achieve a common goal. Quick Facts: * Founded in 2003 as a community service activity by Tom Cheney, a Milton High School student, the Freedom 5K is now in its 17th year * It's the kick-off event to Milton's Fourth of July celebration * Has grown from 35 participants its first two years to over 125 runners today * 100 percent of the proceeds go to the Milton Track and Cross Country Remembrance Scholarship |
