Guadalupe Valley Young Marines DDR Dash

Enrique “Kiki” Camarena was a Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) agent, who lost his life in the effort to keep harmful drugs off the streets of America.  In commemoration of Kiki’s sacrifice, and in acknowledgment of the thousands of agents and officers just like him who strive to make our world a safer place, the Young Marines run the Drug Demand Reduction (DDR Dash) 5K as part of our national Red Ribbon Week efforts- this years theme is, "Running to be Drug Free!"

Young Marines wear those red bracelets to signify they will remain drug free and stand with Kiki to keep drugs out of our communities!

Join us in this Fun Run DDR Dash and help us raise money to continue our program, and allow our members to go camping, visit veterans, and participate in summer adventures including the Division 4 National Encampment located in Colorado next summer-2020.  

$5 of every entry fee will be donated to Navarro High School's Cross Country Track team!!!
