Once Upon a Time, the Coalition hosted their first Annual PreK 5K: Readiness Run through the Fairy tale Forest of Boyd Hill Nature Preserve.  Characters came from far and wide across Pinellas County and were transported into a whimsical world of literacy classics within Storybook Village.

Our Storybook Village comes to life this Saturday, April 23rd, and we invite you and your school families to come out and support early learning!  There will be parent resources, games and activities for the children, food, KONA Ice, a Bounce House and more!!

Storybook Village is free, and opens to the public at 9:30am.  We will also be hosting a race beforehand, and all runners/walkers/skippers can still sign up (for a fee) the day of!  It's a fun run/walk, so families are encouraged to participate in this beautiful stroller accessible hike along Lake Maggiore!

When: April 23, 2016

Time: The race begins at 9am, and our FREE Storybook Village opens  at 9:30am
