Through this 10 week program our youth will learn the principles of leadership, respect, and teamwork as well as portraying healthy habits to last a lifetime. We will break down the fundamental skills of running to meet the needs of all those participating. Camp begins June 17th 2024! Sign up link: https://runsignup.com/Race/MI/Marquette/QCRCKidsSummerRunningCamp
