Family Sponsorship Opportunity
We're hoping to gather Family Sponsors this year to outsource course set-up tasks previously taken on by our PTA Volunteers to give to our race producer. Your donation will go directly towards improved course signage, street cone placement and the water station. Additional funds will also be used towards active flair for our Fun Run. Our goal is to raise $1000!
Note: April 1st is the deadline for family sponsor names to appear on the T-shirt.
