| On March 27th 2006, Dennis Donahue (44) died of a sudden massive heart attack while at home leaving behind his wife and three children. His family, hoping to bring something positive from this tragic loss began to create a 5k which would serve a dual purpose; Preserving Dennis Donahue’s legacy, and raising money for a new track at Evergreen High school. The Idea to raise funds for an all weather track came to Karen Donahue and Kathie Brock after reviewing the track schedule and finding that every meet was away at another school. Both Kathie and Karen found this fact frustrating since they both had children who participated in track and found it hard to make it to so many away games. From this common frustration, the Dennis Donahue Memorial 5k was born under the name Trot for a Track. The first race was held on August 27th, 2006 with the help of several generous sponsors, and met with resounding success. With close to five hundred participants the race raised almost twenty-six thousand dollars for the new track. The hope of the dedicated supporters of the 5k is to raise enough money not only to build a new track and service it, but to also raise health awareness. With these goals in mind it is hoped that the third annual Trot For a Track will be as successful as the first two have been. |
