Our Goals

Our inaugural 5K event has several specific goals:

• $10,000 in sponsorship donations
• 200 participants running or walking the event
• Promote active, healthy lifestyles within the Maryland Indian community

Another of our goals is to educate the general public about the Piscataway and the indigenous people of Maryland. Many people are unaware that Maryland's First Nations still exist within its borders! Funds raised from the 5K go toward various tribal programs. You can read about some of these programs in detail by clicking HERE.
