Who does the race benefit and who does it honor?
Our race benefits the young girls of Cambridge. The Cambridge Girls Softball League and other girls' sports teams are the primary recipients of the funds from the race. These great organizations work on team building, athletic skills, and strengthen the connection among physical, mental and social well-being of girls. We've raised over $130,000 for girls' sports in Cambridge!
