Another chance to be at Wellington Park for ICE 🍨🍦CREAM...
I mean work a race for ICE CREAM🍦🍨
8th Annual Crank & Boom Sprint For Scoops 3K on this muggy evening...438 runner/walkers have signed up for this simple 3K event...🍦it's the chance for 🍦...and of course the charity partner FEED.
Partial proceeds and 100% of runner/walker donations will benefit Fayette Eating Education & Delivery (FEED). FEED is working to help students in Lexington one school at a time by providing weekend food bags so these kids have food on the weekend when they aren't in school.
FEED offers weekend bags of food (distributed on Fridays) and financial resources for backpack programs to Lexington schools for children in need. Financial resources are distributed to the school's Family Resource Coordinator for the singular purpose to provide weekend backpacks for their students in need. These financial resources are provided on an application basis and help "fill in the gaps" in existing backpack programs.
FEED is currently providing the actual backpacks for a number of Fayette County schools. If a school is being serviced by FEED, these bags contain shelf stable milk, fruit, vegetable, protein, grain, and a snack. A fresh fruit or vegetable is provided when available.
One bag of food costs approximately $6, with shelf stable milk being the most expensive item. A single bag is packed with dairy, fruit/vegetable, protein, and grains. All items are shelf stable. Their goal is to provide fresh fruit, such as apples or oranges, when possible.
