From the beginning inspiring physical health through activity has been a cornerstone of our program. Motivating our BOLD youth through setting running & biking goals has helped them push past perceived limits and accomplish things they never thought possible. In turn, these accomplishments have inspired our mentors, supporters, and community partners to set their own goals and get involved. Because of these BOLD relationships we have an exciting opportunity to offer you a chance to Build-your-own BOLD Race Series, set and accomplish a BOLD goal and help support more youth who deserve the chance to succeed.
Build-your-own BOLD Race Series by choosing one or more of the following to get involved with through Bolder Options. Contact Steph Leonard to learn more!
