The Scotties Stampede 5K held in Ballston Spa
The Ballston Spa Central School District recently hosted the annual Scotties Stampede 5k Run/Walk as part of the district’s Wellness Day 2023. The event followed a highly popular Kid’s Color Run with close to 300 students enjoying a run around the campus amidst clouds of colored chalk.
The top three finishers of the Scotties 5k were Andrew Wade 1st place, Ari Bishop, 2nd place and Robert Diamond 3rd place. Complete results are available via ARE events website at: http://www.zippyraceresults.
