The Kiwanis Club of the Delta from Antioch, State Superintendent of Public Instruction Tom Torlakson, East Bay Regional Park District, and the City of Antioch proudly present The 35th Annual Holiday Run and Walk for Health this Saturday, December 10, 2011.

This event benefits local schools, youth, and libraries and is an effective vehicle to promote and build a healthy community—starting with our youth and will once again be held at the Contra Loma Regional Park in Antioch. Click here for directions! See below for the entry fees per race category.

This year the Holiday Run and Walk for Health will feature participation challenges for schools and libraries. Last year’s event generated nearly $10,000 in grants for our community.

A major part of the raceday activities is a Health Fair. Health Fair vendors will be providing health testing, fitness information, and healthy food and drink sampling.

Contact the Kiwanis club to become a race sponsor or Health Fair vendor.
