On July 1, the Community Relations Recreation Athletic Division of the Salt River Pima-Maricopa Indian Community hosted a Freedom 5K run to celebrate the 4th of July. About 70 participants laced up their shoes for the 3.1 miles around the Accelerated Learning Academy track. Everyone who attended was treated to good music, refreshments and a T-shirt for completing the event.
