How does it work?
- Students raise funds by collecting pledges to run in the Jog-a-thon on September 26th, 2024.
- A couple days before the run, every student receives a FREE 2024 Jog-a-thon shirt, funded through the donations of our event sponsors
- On the day of the event, students wear their Jog-a-thon shirt and participate in the run, regardless if they raise funds or not
- This year, we are excited to bring back our 100% naturally organic foam that students can run through
- After the run, students enjoy a free non-dairy popsicle with their grade!
- Families are welcome to attend the run and cheer on their students!
