Paul Wells and the Downtown State College Improvement District developed
the Last Cruise 5k Race to provide a fundraising opportunity for a
community non-profit organization in the Centre Region. The Youth
Service Bureau was selected because of their outstanding commitment and
services provided to residents of Centre County. The Youth Service
Bureau (CCYSB) is a private, non-profit human service organization
serving Families in need. On an annual basis, more than 2,500 children,
youth and families receive aid and services from 13 YSB community-based,
family-based, and residential programs located in Bellefonte,
Philipsburg, Snow Shoe, and State College initial meetings were held
with Paul Wells, Teresa Sparacino and Marc Warren and it was decided
that the inaugural race would be entitled The Last Cruise 5K and would
be held on the same date as the Last Cruise.
The race is held on the Pennsylvania State University historic campus
and it is the goal that each year the route will change to attract
runners from year to year, providing them with an enjoyable, scenic and
accurate course. In 2007, a check in the amount of $1,830.00 was
presented to the Youth Service Bureau. The Race will be held the last
Saturday of July on an annual basis in conjunction with the Last Cruise
Car Show. The Last Cruise 5k Race would not have been possible without
the generosity and continual support from our sponsors.
