2nd Annual Sneaker Soiree by Girls on the Run Piedmont

Lace Up for a Life-Changing Evening: The 2nd Annual Sneaker Soiree!

[Spotsylvania, VA] – Get ready for a night of purpose, passion, and impact! On Saturday, March 29, 2025, Girls on the Run Piedmont will host the 2nd Annual Sneaker Soiree at Stevenson Ridge Event Center, bringing the community together for an unforgettable evening of fun, inspiration, and giving back.

This isn’t just another gala—it’s a call to action. It’s a chance to step up and ensure that every girl in our community has the opportunity to grow, thrive, and shine.

 

Why It Matters

Right here in our own neighborhoods, girls need a safe space to build confidence, find their voice, and discover their limitless potential. But the reality is, it costs over $400 per season to provide each girl with the full Girls on the Run experience.

For over 12 years, Girls on the Run Piedmont has NEVER turned a girl away due to financial need—and we want to keep that promise. But with rising costs and an increased need for scholarships and running shoes, we need your help now more than ever.

How You Can Help

The Sneaker Soiree is your chance to make a direct impact on local girls’ lives. Your ticket, sponsorship, or silent auction bid fuels scholarships, provides running shoes, sports bras, and healthy snacks, and ensures no girl is left behind.

An Unforgettable Evening Awaits
