Rotary Kids Triathlon
This multi-sport race (hosted by Rotary Club of Vero Beach - Vero's 1st Club, Est. 1926 and in partnership with Indian River County) is geared for both 1st time triathletes and seasoned competitive triathletes.
Our inaugural event last year was sold-out to 200 registrants, so BE SURE TO SIGN-UP EARLY!
OUR VALUE PROPOSITION: Hosting the Best Community Multisport Event for Children in Indian River County
> No Child Will be Turned Away due to cost, disability, or skill level
> All Proceeds Benefit Youth in our community
OUR OBJECTIVES:
(i) Empower youth from all Walks of Life,
(ii) Provide all children with Equitable Access,
(iii) Promote an Active and Healthy Lifestyle (improving their physical/mental well-being as well as their friendships and social skills), and
(iv) Offer this event as a Challenge/Responsibility that positively impacts Courage and Resolve.
ADDITIONAL PROGRAM HIGHLIGHTS:
1) $20 EARLY-BIRD ENTRY FEE (scholarships available to make this free for those in need): Each child will receive a t-shirt, swim towel and cap, backpack for storing their equipment, beautiful Finisher Medal, and a really cool trophy if they place 1st, 2nd or 3rd for their age - and there will be plenty of water available during the event along with healthy snacks after completing the course!
2) NOVICE or NON-SWIMMERS can walk in the heated Gifford pool, or have a friend or relative complete the swim segment within a RELAY TEAM (there is no reason for any one child not to participate!)
3) The County has designated Dec. 7 as a FAMILY COMMUNITY DAY at the Victor Hart Sr. Complex, allowing all youth participants, as well as their families and friends, to swim for free for the rest of the day at the Gifford Aquatic Center
4) Rotary's partnership with Indian River County enables pre-registered kids to participate in PRE-RACE CLINICS in the summer and fall for safety education and training preparation purposes
