CHARLOTTESVILLE, VA. April 16, 2015: This coming weekend, a team of eight SHINE Systems employees will put on their running shoes for a great cause—the Virginia Institute of Autism’s (VIA) Run For Autism 5K.
The race is this Saturday, April 18 and kicks off at Charlottesville High School with a Kid’s Race at 7:30 a.m., and a 5K for teens and adults starting at 8:00 a.m. Kids ages 3-12 are invited to participate in the Kid’s Race which is part of the Kids Triple Crown Series.
The VIA is hoping to raise $115,000.00 during the event. If you are interested in participating, you can still sign up by following the directions in the VIA Fundraising Packet.
