What is the Renton Park Fun Run?

The Renton Park Fun Run is a 13 day fundraiser, taking place on 10/23/2024. Families will be getting donations for the minutes their student runs, walks, and moves at the Renton Park Fun Run. Funds raised from this event go toward student and family enrichment experiences! Our goal is to raise $8,000.

 

How can families sign up their student(s)?
