The Stillwater Fox Trot is a community event designed to bring local residents together in the spirit of wellness and giving back.
This event will feature a shoe and athletic clothing drive to support Valley Outreach. Through our partnership with Sneakers4Good, we’ll receive $2 for every pair of used running shoes donated, with proceeds going directly to Valley Outreach. Participants are encouraged to clean out their closets and bring along unused shoes and athletic wear. Valley Outreach has also highlighted a strong need for athletic clothing, which will be donated directly to the organization.
