About the Chelsea Chase 5k
The mission of the Jordan Boys & Girls Club is to help young people, ages 6-18, especially those who need us most, build strong character and realize their full potential as responsible citizens and leaders. This year, the CC5K will be supporting Keystone Club, our teen leadership group, as they work towards attending the Annual National Keystone Conference, a week of workshops and sessions that introduces new skills and experiences to these young leaders.
This event not only focuses on character and leadership development of our Club members, but also giving back to the community through our strong relationship with the Chelsea Police Department.
The Chelsea Police Relief Association’s mission is to provide death benefits to families of officers; since CPRA began, the City of Chelsea has lost six officers. This event takes place of calls for support that took place in the past to support this very worthy cause.
Come on out to support Chelsea's finest!
