What is the Miraloma FUN RUN? The FUN RUN is a school wide community event and one of the major fundraisers here at Miraloma.
- Everyone is welcome to come! It's a wonderful opportunity to meet the Miraloma community, get some exercise with your kids, and raise funds for our school.
- It is styled like a walkathon where friends, family and co-workers sponsor our students/teachers as they walk/jog around a quarter mile track.
- Each student/family asks sponsors to donate money for their student runner.
- After the RUN we gather at center field for a community picnic.
Please SAVE THE DATE - October 23! Email us to get involved and watch this space in the newsletter for more information as it becomes available. We are looking forward to seeing you out on the track!
Be a RUN Sponsor! Promote your business, support our school and the annual FUN RUN!
- The RUN is a fantastic opportunity to promote your business to our school community.
- RUN Sponsors get a lot of visibility and shout outs.
- See your name/logo on RUN banners (so everyone that tours Miraloma can see!), event signage, and our keepsake t-shirt!
