About the event

The Countryside Fun Run/Walk is back! 


This year's event will be Wednesday, April 16.

Our 2025 Fundraising Goal is $12,000!


New to Countryside and wondering what the Fun Run/Walk is? 

The Fun Run/Walk Fundraiser is 2 things. 


1. A fundraiser whereby, students create a parent supervised fundraising page on the Fund Hub website (linked here) and share it with family and friends requesting donations (in any amount) to support their run/walk and school. 


2. Students participate in a grade level 1/4 mile run/walk on school grounds


Step 1: Click here to register or Log In (for returning families) your student/s on the FundHub website.


Step 2:  Add your student/s to current event


Step 3:  Select your student/s Classroom


Step 4: Select your student/s t-shirt size - every Countryside student will receive a free t-shirt for their participation in the fun run/walk.


T-shirt order is due by next Friday, March 21. Register as soon as possible to ensure your student receives the correct size. 

Step 5: Make sure to click "save" to complete your registration!
