The 13th Annual Run for Trey is on Sunday, October 8 at Starin Park in Whitewater!! 

Editor’s Note: The following was provided by Molly Fuller.

Through the strength of the Kilar family and the outpouring of community support, Run for Trey was established to support the development and maintenance of the little league field, Treyton’s Field of Dreams, and yearly local scholarships for students.  

Mary and Mike Kilar’s son, Treyton, age 6, was killed in a car crash by a drunk driver on September 2, 2010. Although his dreams were shattered by a senseless tragedy, the field built in his honor provides a safe place for children and families to celebrate life and spend time together.  It is a place where children are encouraged to dream big and learn that through hard work, their dreams can become reality! 

Although Treyton is now playing on the “real” field of dreams in heaven, the fundraising efforts each year from the Run for Trey helps thousands of other children have a better future and learn responsible life-long decision-making skills.
