2019 - Feet for the Street 5K & 7 Miler

Feet for the Street 5K

The Feet for the Street 5K was created to raise awareness and much needed financial support for the Winston-Salem Street School, a private, nonprofit alternative educational option for at-risk high school students in the Forsyth County area. The Street School combines small class sizes, caring, individualized attention, and an unwavering belief that the students we serve, when given a second chance, can not only thrive in high school, but be better prepared for success in life as well. In the last 14 years, 200 students have overcome personal issues and learning difficulties to graduate and receive an accredited high school diploma from the Street School. These are students who many had little hope for and who in most cases, had very limited expectations for themselves before coming to the Street School. Since the Street School is a nonprofit organization, your support directly impacts our ability to provide life-changing services for our students. By participating in events like the Feet for the Street 5K, you are making a difference! This race takes place on the beautiful Winston-Salem Greenway, starting and ending at the Salem Lake section of the trail. This flat, paved course is fun for all participants, from experienced runners to walkers looking to support Street School programs. Custom designed t-shirts, refreshments, and awards for overall and age group winners will be provided for participants.
