Event Description
Bailey’s Heart & Sole 5K
On Sunday, September 19, 2021, VolunTeen Leo will be hosting our 1st Annual 5K to honor the life of Bailey Bullock. This event should prove to be our biggest, most impactful, and most energetic event yet! The 5k will be held at the beautiful Ma & Pa Trail at the Williams Street entrance. The run kicks off with a great energetic dynamic warmup that will be sure to get your body ramped up for the day! This will be a timed shotgun race. Once back at the entrance, grab a water and some snacks as we cheer on the remaining participants. When everyone has returned we will celebrate with a group picture and announce the winners for the 5k.
Bailey passed away suddenly on May 12th, 2021. He was our friend, teammate and classmate. Bailey Bullock attended the John Carroll School where he always pushed himself to excel academically. Bailey played football, basketball, and ran track. In his free time, he worked on building his computer, volunteering at Balmaine Manor Assisted Living, becoming a better athlete, playing video games with his friends, and most of all spending time with his family.
Bailey was just 16 years old.
VolunTeen is excited to be raising critical funds for the American Heart Association to fund lifesaving research. The kind of research that created the artificial heart valve, new medications to lower blood pressure and create guidelines used by physicians worldwide. The kind of science that is saving lives!
We need your help. Please consider registering for this 5K. By doing so, you will directly help save the lives of more moms, dads, brothers, aunts and best friends. To raise funds for people like Bailey.
Thank you for your amazing generosity and let’s raise funds to keep Bailey’s memory alive and prevent this from happening in the future.
