2015 Laveen Turkey Trot and Kids Dash

Riverbend Prep Academy is a small (K-7) public, charter school located in Laveen.  Riverbend’s mission is not only to develop life-long learners who are prepared to contribute purposefully to society; but also to be a school that contributes to the value and well-being of its community.  A portion of the money raised from the Laveen Turkey Trot will be used to support health and fitness activities at Riverbend and in Laveen.

The Laveen Community Council is dedicated to the community of Laveen and its surrounding areas.  They are a 100% volunteer-based organization and all money earned helps to fund youth programs, create a connected community, and build neighborhoods of which we can all be proud.

The Turkey Trot will begin and end on the track at Cesar Chavez High School Stadium.  The route will wind through Cesar Chavez Park and will enjoy beautiful views.  The 1 mile run will also begin and end on the track.  The Free Kids Dash will be located on the football field in the middle of the track and while it is free, all parents must register their child beginning at 7:00AM on November 26, 2015.

Can't join us for the run and/or want to help even more.  Every donation is welcome to support the Riverbend Prep Academy Health/Fitness initiative or programs provided by the Laveen Community Council.
