Making A Difference
TCTC is actively involved in supporting schools, organizations, and individuals related to running sports. In 2010, Traverse City Track Club distributed $90,139 in grants and gifts to the Grand Traverse Region. Some of the various recipients include: Traverse City Public Schools Cross Country and Track programs, Grand Traverse Academy, TART Trails, VASA, and the Women’s Cancer Fund. TC Track Club also established an endowment with the Community Foundation, which will fund grants and scholarships for many years to come. In 2009, TCTC distributed $82,000 in gifts to area schools and organizations. This doesn’t include the countless hours spent consulting and providing support at various events and functions.
