Projects
ENHANCED CROSS-COUNTRY MEET EXPERIENCES
The Ruston Family Foundation aims to enhancing the Washington State cross country meet experience by providing special awards, banners, live video, and more for athletes, coaches, and spectators to enjoy!
Paul Ruston Memorial Run
A 5K run - open to the public. This annual race will promote the foundation's activities by demonstrating the enhanced meet experience (with announcing, music, high quality awards, and more), and raise funds for the foundation’s other activities. In the future, we will consider expanding this effort to a XC invitational for Washington high school teams.
Grants
The Ruston Family Foundation plans to offer grants to high school XC teams, athletes, and coaches. The purpose of these grants would be to support and collaborate with others who propose to carry out activities aligned with the foundation’s mission (of promoting and expanding the sport of XC in Washington state high schools).
