Tax deductible
We aim to host a family fun-filled event to promote fitness and community! We seek to host a free, casual run/walk designed for new or experienced runners! The first 300 to register will receive a tee shirt and a finisher's medal, and we will have a finishers' fair to follow!

This race is unlike many others. It isn't about who can finish fastest. While we welcome experienced runners, this race is specifically hosted in the spirit of fun, fitness, community, and education. We welcome all to this friendly, laid back event. There is no time limit, so even walkers are encouraged to come, and the race is held in two loops, so if you can only complete half, that's okay too!

Your donation to this event, therefore, can help open the world of running to people who are new to the activity.

Now through mid-Decenber we are seeking to raise $7,000 to host this event. If we are unable to secure these funds by the necessary deadlines, we will cancel the event and any money collected up to that point will be used for general school funds. If we are able to raise $7,000 by mid-December, we will host free race registration in the month of December and January and the event will be held on Saturday, February 25.
