A great way to help children access organized sports and activities in Island County.
Q: What is the Healthy Island Youth Initiative?
A: The HIYI Scholarship Program assists children and youth from low-income families who are not currently being assisted by an existing scholarship or fee waiver program. The Scholarship Fund relies on donations from the community and partner organizations to help children access organized sports and activities.
On July 3rd, you and the whole family can join us for the Chum Run 5K at Windjammer Park in Oak Harbor. The run starts at 4 PM and the Fry Run (for younger runners) is at 4:45pm. Anyone who can walk, run, or work five kilometers is invited to register! If you’d rather help with day-of logistics, set-up, or clean up, please reach out to Liz Dickman at [email protected].
For more information about the run and to find links for registration, please visit our website: https://www.islandcountywa.gov/1035/Chum-Run-2026
