5K RACE

The race will begin at 9:15 am in the east parking lot, and will end on the north field (behind the school). Any parents and family members are welcome to come and participate in the race or help cheer on the runners anywhere along the race course. (The race course is printed on the back of this paper).

Water will be provided at two different water stations along the race course.

If your son or daughter has any health concerns that limit their ability to participate in the 5K, please ensure your child is prepared with inhalers or medication they may need before, during, or after the race.
-
A limited amount of T-shirts will be available for $5.00 tomorrow morning in the front entrance of the school.

There will be granola bars and orange juice for the runners available at the finish line.
Any student is allowed to walk/run the 5K as part of the day's activity. It is highly recommended that those who are interested in participating can walk/run at least 1 mile in 12 minutes or less.
***Any parents, family members or friends of students and faculty at DFJHS are welcome to run the 5K. We'd love to have you!
Training programs for the 5K are available in the Front Office for those who would like to get ready for the 5K.
Permission forms for the 5K will be given to each student to have signed by their parent/guardian at the beginning of May.
We need parent volunteers who can help with the 5K. Also, we are interested in getting prizes donated to be given to students in a raffle drawing who participated in the 5K. If you are interested in volunteering for the race or making a donation, please contact Katie Reese, Julie Savik, or Janelle Hanks at 801.798.4052.
