WHO: The mission of Louie’s Kids is to provide bi-weekly workouts, combined with nutrition education, throughout the tri-county area to families who could not otherwise afford a gym, recreation or athletic membership. In addition to helping kids and their families become and remain active Louie’s Kids also established a program called Run Buddies. Run Buddies pairs groups of kids, of all shapes and sizes with volunteer runners who want to encourage kids to run. The program culminates in a 5k or 10k in which the kids and their mentors participate.
WHAT: Goat Island Gatherings and Barrier Island Eco Tours will host the 5th Annual Hope on Goat fundraiser. This year’s fun filled event will support efforts by the Louie’s Kids program to spark students’ curiosity and engage them in issues beyond their own life boundaries.
