First 2000 Days 5K Bubble Run & Walk

There are approximately 2000 days between the time a baby is born and when that child enters kindergarten. It is during that time that 90% of a child’s brain develops. Experiences during these 2000 days have a lasting impact on later learning, health, and success. Children’s earliest experiences determine how their brains are wired and lay the groundwork for forming the foundation of the social and emotional skills needed for success in school, work and life. Join Smart Start of Brunswick County for its First 2000 Days 5K and be a Champion for Children.
