Natomas 5K Run for their Future - Sacramento, California - Running

The Natomas 5K Run for their Future is a Running race in Sacramento, California consisting of a 5K.

Its name tells much of the story: Natomas 5K Run for their Future is a community event designed to raise money to help local kindergarten through 12th-grade students, potential leaders of tomorrow.

Proceeds from the 5 kilometer fun run and walk will be used by the Natomas Schools Foundation and by local schools for art, academic, athletic and other school-related purposes for students living within Natomas Unified School District boundaries.

The 5K is a fun-for-all-ages event, ideal for families and meant to accommodate everyone from competitive runners to young children to anyone desiring a little Saturday exercise by walking or jogging at their own pace.

This year's Natomas 5K Run For Their Future is the second in what is planned as an annual event. Last year, it attracted hundreds of participants.

The Natomas Schools Foundation, a nonprofit group, has been active in awarding annual college scholarships - it plans to hand out $9,000 this year, in addition to numerous new or refurbished computers.
