Q300 PTA is pleased to announce that it will hold a Fun Run event (http://q300pta.org/FunRun2022) again this year. Following our school’s first Fun Run in 2021, this year there is again a virtual window (Saturday, May 21, 2022 through Sunday, June 5, 2022) where families are encouraged to get outdoors for run, ride, skate and physical exercise.

• Title: Q300 Fun Run 2022
• Date: Saturday, May 21, 2022 through Sunday, June 5, 2022
• Place: Anywhere
• Price: $15-$30
• URL: http://q300pta.org/FunRun2022

Beyond virtual efforts, during the same two-week virtual window or later in June, individual grade bands may hold events in parks near our school on weekends. Some ideas circulated by those on our Fun Run Committee include relays, egg and spoon races, potato sack races, kids v parents races, etc. Individual grade bands, with the involvement of class parents and others may turn their grade’s event into what best suits comments from families in their grade band.

All in the community are welcome and encouraged to register for the event. Once registering, “Q300 FUN RUN!” t-shirt will be sent to the registrant(s) via the school. Orders of t-shirts can be placed via http://q300pta.org/FunRun2022 and are priced at $10-20 per t-shirt. Sizing is available for kids and adults. See t-shirt design below. These t-shirts have been approved by Q300 and can be worn on school days (i.e. the t-shirts can be worn during the Fun Run and then again later when attending school).
