#Harvest foundation martinsville va series

Training wheels and others without, have been purchased for our young

The Bike Barn, a program of the Martinsville-Henry County Family YMCA is open for the 2014 season. Go ahead 'Get Active, Get Healthy, Have Fun!' Additional thanks go to the many sponsors who help make the runs and outreach programs of the Y and Activate possible. Thanks to a generous grant from Women in Philanthropy of the Martinsville Area Community Foundation that allowed for the purchase of an electronic timing system, all races are chip timed.

#Harvest foundation martinsville va series

The series grew to include seven races including the Martinsville Half Marathon, 5K & Relay and the Girls on the Run events. To streamline sponsor requests all runs organized through the YMCA were grouped into a Challenge Series. The first races in the series included the Harvest Moon Run 10K, Tuff Strutter 5K Trail Run at Rooster Walk, Helgramite Hustle 5K Mud Run at Smith River Fest, and the Turkey Day 5K. The Y was the perfect host!Ĭharged by the Harvest Foundation with creating a sustainability plan for the Bike Barn, Miles in Martinsville was created. Once run in conjunction with the Martinsville and Henry County Coalition for Health and Wellness, Activate sought a permanent home in 2011. A four-year grant from the Harvest Foundation allowed for development of programs to engage people in health living. Activate MHC is a program of the YMCA that focuses on biking and hiking in the Martinsville and Henry County area.
