Youth Running

We’re excited to offer after school running programs designed specifically for 5th and 6th grade students at White Pines Intermediate School! These programs help young athletes build endurance, confidence, and teamwork in a fun and supportive environment. In the fall, we host our cross country program. This program meets two days a week, after school from 4:00-5:30 PM. In the spring, we offer our track & field program. At the conclusion of the track & field season, we invite all participants to run in the Lakeshore Area Track Meet with other participants from Zeeland, Holland, West Ottawa and more!

5th & 6th Grade Cross Country
