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!
