Passing the Baton! New Trick or Trot 5k Coordinator Needed
After four tireless years of planning the Trick or Trot 5K, Jackie Sastre is passing the baton, and we're looking for the next leader to fill her shoes!
The Trick or Trot 5K is held in Camp Hill and has served as the culminating race of the Eisenhower Run Club's training season since 2020. Proceeds of the Trick or Trot benefit The Lion Foundation’s Earl Besch Fund, which provides support for students and families in the Camp Hill School District who are facing economic hardship.
This opportunity for our young runners, and the funds it raises for our community, would not be what it is today without Jackie's vision and commitment. Race participation has grown each year, drawing registration from students in Run Club as well as their families, other residents of Camp Hill, and runners from surrounding communities - a true testament to the quality of this event and the impact and purpose it brings.
We are immensely grateful for Jackie's dedication and know that this is a big role to fill. But you will not work alone! Jackie will remain available to advise as needed, and The Lion Foundation will provide the support of an event committee.
Responsibilities of the Trick or Trot 5K Coordinator include:

Philadelphia Trips!
Going on the 5th Grade trip to Philly is a rite of passage here in Camp Hill. Going again in High School and seeing it all through the lens of Law & Policy? Priceless. LEARN MORE! Click through the photos to see other GREAT IDEA projects we funded this year! |
Watch out Philly - here we come!
Learn more about these two awesome Philadephia Experiences!
These Camp Hill students impressed everyone in the court room. Both Judge Rendell and Beth Specker, the executive director of the Rendell Center for Civic Education, told me after that it was hands down the best student arguments they had ever hosted. One law clerk told me that he wasn’t sure what guidance to give because our students handled the arguments so well. They all continued to comment to me how bright our Camp Hill students are. |
