Kids Triathlon Series - 10th Annual in 2010

Do it for the kids – the athletes and the program families!

The Kid’s Triathlons are Pittsburgh Habitat’s largest fundraising events each year. The triathlons give children in our community a chance to compete in an exciting event, and give us the opportunity to raise funds for families in our local communities.

NEW IN 2010:  This year we are planning fun activities for kids to help them understand who we are at Habitat for Humanity of Greater Pittsburgh and what we do!  Look for us while we tabulate the results of the race!

These events are only as successful as the volunteers who so generously give of their time and energy on the day of the event. We are looking for people like YOU to help out with the swim, bike, run, transition, and finish line aspects of the race. The volunteer set-up will begin at 6am, athletes should arrive by 7am, and the race starts at 8am. Please consider helping to make this event the best triathlon yet! Volunteer here!

Habitat's program families and volunteers have been busy since the last youth triathlete ran across the finish line last summer. Two rehabs were completed in Wilkinsburg and Forest Hills and another Chessland Street home was completed.  We're working on a minimum of six homes this year, continuing to build throughout Allegheny County.

 

Raising Awareness
Another major aspect of the race is that it raises awareness of poverty housing to young children and the role of Habitat for Humanity. It also exposes kids to the importance of community service. Habitat believes that these kids will one day come to the construction site and swing a hammer.
