Event Description
October 8, 2017
Since 1995, City to the Sea has been the premier fundraiser for the Cuesta College Track and Field and Cross Country teams.The current vision of the two programs is to raise sufficient monies to build a grandstand on the track & field facility, an approximate $300,000 undertaking. This facility serves not only the track & field program, but hosts the annual High School County Meet, the Regional Special Olympics, as well as other special events throughout the year. We thank you in advance for helping us achieve this goal!
