Event Information
Reason behind the Flynnie 5K
We invite you to join the family and friends of Kevin Flynn for the inaugural “Flynnie 5K,” a 5k run/walk to benefit a graduating male and female from Danvers High School.
Kevin Flynn, a proud son of Cambridge, graduated from Salem State University and enjoyed a long career as Court Officer for the State of MA working in the Salem District Court.
His early passion was to play hockey, and he later became a youth hockey coach. During his lifetime he touched the lives of the players, parents, and the communities in both Danvers and Peabody.
Danvers High School won two state championships and multiple Northeast Conference Championships under Kevin’s leadership. He will be inducted into the High School Hockey Coaches HOF in May 2019 and his over 300 victories only tell part of his love for the sport.
Watching his players develop into confident young men and developing lifetime bonds with the community were the hallmarks of his teams. He partnered with the community to help the young skaters in town in the “Learn to Skate” program and invited the young Falcons to visit practices.
His later passion in life was being a father to his son Matt, Danvers High Class of 2014. While Coach Flynn stepped aside from coaching the high school ranks, he never left coaching as he took over the reins of several youth hockey teams at the Squirt, Pee Wee and Bantam levels that Matt played on.
