Good Shepherd Run for the Gold Fun Run/Walk

The 14th Annual Good Shepherd School Irish Run For The Gold Fun Run/Walk benefits the Visual and Performing Arts Programs of Good Shepherd Catholic School in Frankfort, KY. 

This year's participants have TWO options:

• All Virtual.  Run or walk a 1.7 mile route wherever they choose between March 17--March 19.
• Join us for a 1.7 mile Fun Walk on Saturday, March 19, beginning at 11:00am at the Good Shepherd School campus (75 Shepherd Way, Frankfort).  

Following the Fun Walk on March 19, GSS will host a Shamrockin' Saturday event (11:30am--2pm) including kids' games in the gym, music, face painting, and a photo booth.  Be sure to show your Irish spirit with the "wearin' o' the green" for the costume contest.  There will be prizes!   And some of Frankfort's favorite food trucks are joining us: Community Que, Hoggy's Ice Cream, Kona Ice, and Travelin' Tom's Coffee.  

Registration is open until March 19, 10:30am.  

The first 150 registered participants will receive a Run for the Gold t-shirt designed by a GSS student.  All participants will have a digital bib and participants who enter their times at this site can print a finisher's certificate.   T-shirt pickup will be at the GSS gym on Saturday 10:45am-2pm or at the school office March 21-25, 8am--2pm.  (T-shirts for GSS families can be sent home with students.)  You may also choose when registering to have your shirt shipped to you.  

We are also giving away prizes including free oil changes at Frankfort Toyota, Visa gift cards, and tickets for a Louisville City soccer game (2022 season). 

Run participants can earn a refund of up to $15 for referring 3 or more other participants.

The GSS team that has the most members registered will win the honor of keeping the "Nutty Chuck Jones" lucky leprechaun trophy for the next year.  Each GSS team with 50 or more members registered will get an ice cream party at school.  

The GSS student who has the most donations made on his/her behalf will receive a $25 Dairy Queen gift card.   Each GSS student who has at least 5 donations made on his/her behalf will earn an out-of-uniform pass.
