CLT Runway 5K Benefits Central Piedmont Students
Imagine taking a jog… on an airport runway! That’s just hundreds of runners — including scholars from Central Piedmont — did last month (Oct. 22) during the 15th annual CLT Runway 5K at Charlotte Douglas Airport.
Media coverage from WSOC-TV showed people of all ages enjoying the unique opportunity run or walk on the runway, all for a good cause.
Proceeds from the Runway 5K fund Airport Opportunity Scholarships with Central Piedmont Community College (CPCC) created to promote careers in aviation, as well as economic opportunities in Charlotte.
