About the Club . . .
The Boys & Girls Club of Stamford serves our community’s most historically underserved youth through financially accessible after-school programs and summer camps. Of the 550+ K-12 children that attend the club daily, over 95% of our youth are people of color, 70% have a household income of less than $30,000 a year, and nearly half come from single-parent households.

The first 1,500 participants will receive a tech t-shirt! T-shirts may be picked up on Wednesday, May 14th, at early packet pickup or on race day!

The flat 5K course begins at 7:00 p.m. at Mill River Park.
