Rick's Run for Kids is the living legacy of Rick Dekeon. As a beloved PE teacher at Northside Elementary, Rick positively impacted the lives of hundreds of Ann Arbor children. Rick also served as a Rec & Ed coach, official, clinician, and board member.  He encouraged all kids to be physically active and volunteered his time to run a before school running club, Cross Country Kids. Also, the floor hockey games on Friday mornings with parents and students were legendary.

 

Help keep Rick's legacy alive by running, walking, volunteering, or donating to Rick's Run for Kids.
