VOLVO OCEAN RACE 5K WALK/RUN/ROLLERBLADE® TO BENEFIT
COLLEGE ASSISTANCE PROGRAM
March 21, 2002
A 5K walk/run/Rollerblade® contest will be held to
benefit the College Assistance Program of Dade County, Inc.
(CAP, Inc.) and the Miami Beach Police Athletic League on
Sunday, April 14, 7:30 a.m., at South Pointe Park in Miami
Beach. The event is being held in conjunction with the
Volvo Ocean Race Round the World 2001-2002, an international
sailing competition that will resume from our waters after
the completion of the 5K.
Preregistration fees for the 5K are $15 for adults and $6
for students. After April 10, registration fees are $18 for
everyone.
Awards are given to the top three in each age group, with
special competitive categories for school faculties, school
teams, race walkers, the physically challenged, police and
law enforcement officers and firefighters. All registered
participants will receive T-shirts.
For more than a decade Miami-Dade County Public Schools'
(M-DCPS) students and employees have contributed more than
$4.1 million to CAP, Inc. through fund-raisers they have
planned or joined. CAP, Inc. provides scholarship grants to
help some of M-DCPS' most needy and deserving students
attend college.
