City of Groveland Juice Jog 5K

NOVEMBER 5th, 2016 - Race begins at 8AM - Lake David Park, Groveland

The City of Groveland’s Juice Jog 5K is entering its 3rd year! The event begins at Lake David Park and the race course takes participants through the neighborhood of Groveland fondly referred to as “The Hill”. This event began as a way to raise funds for local charity groups, and this year we are raising funds for Groveland Elementary School. Groveland Elementary School is a Title 1 school that serves all of the children in Groveland. A large majority of the students attending Groveland Elementary receive free or reduced price lunch, are speakers of other languages, and/or are enrolled in ESE programs. Sadly, the school does not have a playground on site, and the kids do not have a lot of options for physical activity during their recess. The City of Groveland Parks & Recreation Department believes that raising funds to purchase playground equipment and/or indoor and outdoor play items is a priority that will ensure that the students at Groveland Elementary will meet the daily goal of 60 minutes of physical activity, as well as facilitate a successful learning career.
