Cripple Creek pioneers needing donations for new track and field, 5k virtual race Saturday
CRIPPLE CREEK, Colo. (KRDO) -- Cripple Creek Victor School District will hold a 5k virtual race this Saturday, July 3rd. The race will help raise funds for CCV's Outdoor Track & Field/Football Complex.
Currently, cracked asphalt and dead grass is prominent at the track and field court and football complex.
Amanda Wood, with Cripple Creek Victor School District, says, "Cripple Creek Junior-Senior High School is located at about 9,500 feet elevation. This track and field complex could be a perfect place for Olympic and professional athletes to train!"
Wood clarifies, "This will make the facility more than just a huge addition to the school, but potentially for the Colorado community as a whole."
The Cripple Creek pioneers will host the 5k virtual race on Saturday, July 3rd. If you'd like to donate to this cause, you can also send donations via mail to CCV Track and Field, 410 N. B Street, Cripple Creek, CO 80813.
