Go the Xxtra Mile with Us!


In a continuing effort to have women supporting women, we will partner with a Food Bank and Women’s Shelter in each Race Market. Drop off bins will be placed at each Race Materials Pick Up/Expo on Saturday. We ask you to bring a food or pantry item to be donated to the Food Bank and/or clothing, shoes, bedding & the like for the Women & Children’s Shelter.
