Join Joel Rosenberg, banking executive and Executive Director of Highlander Track, as he unfolds the story of this legacy, free youth track and field and cross-country program's impact in the Flathead Valley. Established in the '70s by Jack King and Three Rivers Bank of MT, Highlander Track has evolved into an annual signature spring youth event for kids ages 6-12, nurturing not just physical prowess but also instilling valuable life skills in young athletes. Joel provides a multifaceted view on the growth of the program, especially its explosion in popularity in recent years. We also touch on the program's recent evolution into a 501(c)(3)and opportunities for volunteering and support.
