Run for Peace & Splash Bash

I'm a firm believer in community-supported events. I always encourage our staff and Health Educators to support their communities whenever possible. That's why, I was excited when Sara (from TNT Pineville) told me about the 5K Run for Peace at Home at McAlpine Creek Park and the Fort Mill YMCA's Splash Bash.


This past Saturday, TNT was one of the sponsors of this charity race that helps prevent domestic violence and victims of. All proceeds went to United Family Services Domestic Violence programs, which for more than three decades have been supporting battered women in the Charlotte-Mecklenburg area. There were about 500 runners and tons of supporters in attendance! TNT was thrilled to donate a one time plan as well as a metabolic test as a prize for the race. The race was followed by a charity concert, Rock for Peace at Home that featured local bands.

This Friday (06/05), TNT will be participating in the Fort Mill YMCA's Splash Bash. The goal is to host a day of fun and entertainment for local residents while promoting local businesses and community involvement. The proceeds from tickets will go to the YMCA's Open Door Scholarship fundraising campaign, a acholarship program that help community members who can't afford to have a YMCA membership. This event will be held from 2-5pm at the Fort Mill YMCA's Waterpark. If you're in the area, please stop by and support this event, say hello to Sara, and have a great time!
