Part of the proceeds raised in the BK5K Road Race were donated to the Boys & Girls Clubs of Northeastern Pennsylvania to purchase sports-related equipment, including baseballs and gloves, jump ropes and gym equipment. The annual 5-kilometer race honors Bob Kierlin, founder of Fastenal Co. and lifelong supporter of youth programs. The event is a competitive road race intended to challenge athletes of all abilities to pursue their best efforts. All proceeds from the event and other fundraising efforts go to various area youth organizations. Taking part in the presentation of a check for more than $2,240 are, from left, front: club members Lillianna O’Malley, Ar’Mani Buckley and Kyrie Dansicar. Rear: Jessica Burton, club member coordinator; Whitney McDonald, Fastenal help desk manager; Ray Getman, Fastenal area manager; and Nasir Rivera, club activity leader. (SUBMITTED)
