The New Haven Schools Foundation (NHSF) 5K Fun Run/Walk is back! The community fundraiser and celebration of education kicks off on April 26 at 8am. The event includes a timed 5K race with age-group medals, School Spirit Trophy for the most creative costumes from New Haven Unified School District school groups, kid races and a special 100-meter race for disabled athletes sponsored by Mission Valley Track and Field.
After the race, the fun continues with New Haven Day, an all-day festival showcasing all 12 NHUSD schools, featuring student performances, activities and community fun.
“Last year, we saw a record-breaking 250+ runners and walkers—proof that this event continues to grow in excitement and impact,” said John Shockley, president of NHSF. “We’re thrilled to bring the community together once again to raise vital funds for our schools while having a great time.”
Early bird registration is now open with a $5 discount off admission until April 12. For this limited time, adult tickets are $25 and student registration is only $10, which guarantees an event t-shirt and goody bag. Kids under six participate for free.
Tickets for students with disabilities should be reserved through Mission Valley Track and Field. Contact Lee Webb at lw***@nh***.us.
