The Kids’ Marathon is an “oinkremental” marathon that encourages fitness and health by having kids keep track of their exercise and eating on their “Hog Log.” 
The Kids’ Marathon is NOT A RACE but a program designed for children ages 5-12 years old to walk, jog, or wheelchair the distance of a marathon in small increments, at your own pace leading up to the day of the event, culminating on Saturday, May 6th when we will run the “26th mile” on the actual marathon course!

We will cover our final mile on the actual Flying Pig Marathon course and cross the real “Finish Swine.” Kids get a shirt, a marathon medal and all the goodies of the finish celebration. Register online at www.flyingpigmarathon.com 

Oakley After Hours Event- HPS Volunteers Needed

Hyde Park School has been offered an exciting opportunity to partner with Oakley After Hours on May 26th in the BEER tent!! Oakley After Hours takes place on the 2nd Friday of each month from April through September and it includes live music, kids’ entertainment, beer sales, and various vendor and organization booths. It’s an all around great time for the entire family. 

OAH will donate to HPS PTO if we are able to staff  6 mighty volunteers to work the event on Friday May 26th 5:30-10:30 pm. Most of the work would be selling beer, however there may be some lifting/moving things during setup/tear down and running ice back and forth between the square and Oakley Pub.

This is a fantastic way to give back to both your community as well as your neighborhood school! Plus, it’s an extremely fun event that you’ll get to be smack in the middle of all the action. 

Please grab a group of adult friends and sign up! Additional dates are available if the signup is full and you have a group that can fill another event.
