About The Pace The Park for Hunger 5K

The Pace The Park for Hunger 5K is a Running race in Derry, Pennsylvania consisting of a 5K.

The Lions Lunchables "Pace the Park" for hunger 5K and Fun Walk is sponsored by
the Delmont, New Alexandria, and Slickville Lions Clubs. The backpack supplied
provides breakfast, lunch, and healthy snacks for the weekend to students that
attend the James H. Metzgar Elementary school in New Alexandria, PA. During the
school year, a significant portion of students benefit from the breakfast and lunch
programs, however, the same students are left without similar support during the
weekends. By meeting the basic needs of the students, the clubs hope that each
child will be better able to focus on learning.
No child should go hungry. In honor of September being Hunger AwarenessKeep Reading /> Month, come out and join us in taking the "steps", at your own pace, to help
make a difference.
