Antioch Rotary Club President Milanka Schneiderman thanked the community and local businesses for their support.

“We were very happy with the turnout in the 5k,” said Schneiderman. “We were very excited by the sponsorship of this event by community leadership in Antioch. This was a great family event that showed off the beauty of Antioch, but also will benefit school. We were honored to have State Superintendent of Schools Tom Torlakson and a representative from Assemblyman Jim Frazier at our event along with Mayor Sean Wright.”
