The Hershey's Track and Field State Finals
|
Hershey's Track & Field was created more than 30 years ago to promote youth physical fitness for children 9 to 14 years old. The program is held at the local level each spring, with event champions advancing to the State Finals Meet in July. Individual champions in both running and field events aspire to advance to the National Meet in Hershey, Pennsylvania. Hershey's Track and Field Games is the largest youth sports program of its kind in the United States and Canada.
