Superhero 5K & Kids’ Dash Times

Over 200 people gathered at the Bennington Community Center on Saturday, November 2, to participate in the 7th annual Superhero 5K and Kids’ Dash in support of Teens4Change at United Counseling Service (UCS). Funds raised directly support the peer-led program that gives local teens year-round opportunities to make friends and connections in their community. The first place winner was Jayden Thomas of Bennington, VT, followed by Sebastian Adolphus, and Miles Vernon of Manchester, VT, all representing the 13-19 age group. The top three finishers each won a custom slate cutting board from JK Adams, and the top three finishers in each age group won a bottle of maple syrup from the Sugar Shack.
