Angels in Action 5K Benefit Run
The Angels in Action 5K Run/Walk is held each summer to benefit the Crissa Lea Swinford Memorial Scholarship Fund.
Each year, the event grows with over one hundred people taking part in the run/walk at Nottingham Park and along the Eagle River in Avon, Colorado. The 2008 race however has been cancelled and will resume next year.
The race benefits The Crissa Lea Swinford Memorial Scholarship.
