Mosquito Squad Sponsors The Kirkwood 5k & BackPack Beginnings

Posted by Mosquito Squad

December 20, 2023

Mosquito Squad of the Triad, the leader in protection for mosquitoes and ticks, will once again sponsor the Kirkwood 5K. The Kirkwwod 5K takes place on Saturday August 24, 2019. It is a family focused run/walk/push designed to get the entire community involved! The relatively flat course is nestled in the cozy, neighborhood streets of Kirkwood in Greensboro, NC. It promises to be a FAST, easy, and refreshing 5K. All proceeds for the 2019 K5K will benefit BackPack Beginnings.

BackPack Beginnings is a non-profit organization founded to meet the most basic needs of underprivileged children in Guilford County through the use of backpacks. They believe that every child, whether suffering from hunger or abuse, deserves the support that they are ready and willing to give. With school beginning, this is the time to help out and donate.
