CORE Foundation is proud to present the 1st annual Reston Youth Splash and Dash in cooperation with the Reston Association. This fun-filled community event will offer a perfect introduction to triathlon featuring a swim / run combination for kids aged 6-15.
The family friendly event is designed to help the youth athlete “get their feet wet” in triathlon. Participants receive a goody bag with a t-shirt and swag, a cool medal, and high fives from our awesome volunteers! Snow cones will be provided by Kona Ice!
Proceeds for the event benefit “Kids Helping Kids,” a CORE Foundation program which enables triathlon experiences for low income youth. Athletes have the option of launching a personal fundraising campaign, creating lemonade stands, etc.
We believe that every child should have the opportunity to cross the finish line!

Each year the Reston Sprint Triathlon conducts a Silent Auction of items donated by mostly local businesses and individuals at the event and give 100% of the proceeds to Cornerstones. Unfortunately, this year due to the bad weather conditions on the day of the event we were not able to have our Auction. We have decided to offer the Auction online to all who would like to help Cornerstones.
