New Trier High School's 5K Trevian Trot

5K Fun Run & Walk, Sunday, May 1st,8 am Northfield Campus Football Stadium http://www.newtrier.k12.il.us/treviantrot/

Beginning in 2001, the New Trier Wellness Week featured a 5K Rundezvous focusing on health and wellness for the community and the school. In 2003, the Rundezvous soon became the Run to Remember in memory of the three graduates Julie Sorkin, Shea Fitzgerald and Sam Farmer who perished in the Chicago porch collapse. In 2012, Jan Borja, former principal and avid supporter of the Run, passed away after a long illness. We continue to celebrate their lives during Wellness Week with a new name and logo. The TREVIAN TROT will continue to donate proceeds from the fun walk/run to scholarship funds and charities in memory of Jan and the three graduates.
