Tarentino Strong 5K - Leicester, Massachusetts - Running

The Tarentino Strong 5K is a Running race in Leicester, Massachusetts consisting of a 5K.

All monies raised will go to the Officer Ronald Tarentino Jr. Charitable Fund. We have chosen to hold the family friendly fun run/walk for a second time as a way to honor all that Officer Tarentino continues to stand for in Leicester and in Auburn. Officer Tarentino was a respected, well loved police officer who served with distinction in both towns. He also was a true family man who loved spending time with his family. We hope this run will bring both communities and everyone involved closer and honor Officer Tarentino and all of the men and women in blue who continue to work to protect and serve for us. The goal of the fund is to provide educational scholarships and to help people who have experienced catastrophic circumstances (illness, serious injury, death of a loved one, etc.) by providing financial support and/or donating items that can assist in their recovery. Example: COPS for Kids with Cancer, families of first responders and scholarships in 3 communities throughout Ma.
