Today, The Hershey Company announces the opening of the 2013 season of the Hershey’s Track & Field Games. This is the 36th year for the longest-running youth activity program of its kind in North America. With running, jumping and throwing events for kids ages 9-14, the Games are a great entry point for boys and girls to get active and become engaged in a healthy lifestyle. Every year, thousands of kids in communities across the United States, Canada and Puerto Rico participate in local, state, provincial and territorial meets culminating in the top boys and girls competing at the North American Final in Hershey, Pa. The mission of Hershey’s Track & Field Games is to provide a fun and easy way for kids and their families to become active.
