      2024 Space Race

The Fun Run is one of Benchley-Weinberger's biggest fundraisers of the year. There is still time to share this opportunity with friends and family to rally in support of our school!​

We will wrap the fundraiser with a fun event during school on Wednesday, November 13, where students can run, walk, and move to celebrate our success!

 What to Expect

Our students look forward to the Fun Run every year!  This year's event is space-themed and sure to be out-of-this-world.  Every student gets a FREE Fun Run t-shirt, a race bib to automatically track their laps, a medal for participating in the race, and tasty orange slices from kind, produce vendors in our local community. 

Each race heat starts on the hour at 8 a.m., 9 a.m., and 10 a.m., with UTK starting at 8:15 a.m.  The speedsters start off with a short warm-up led by Coach D.  The students take their mark and do a "walking lap" around the course.  Once they complete an entire lap, they can choose to walk, jog, or run the rest of the race.  ​

Families and friends are welcome on campus to cheer students on!  Give them a big wave, a smile, a cheer... anything to keep them going to infinity and beyond!  A space-themed music playlist will blast our students into new fitness frontiers, curated by our stellar Media Lab instructor, Mr. Dev.  Post-race, each class will head to the lunch tables to hydrate and eat orange slices before heading back to their classroom for the remainder of the half day.

 

If your student requires any accommodations during the event, please let the school office know as soon as possible.

Volunteers are welcome to help "run" this event. 

Thank you to our 2024 Sponsors!
