What is the Pumpkin Dash?
We are moving our beloved color run to the evening. Join us for a color run, yard games on the field and track, a special appearance from Miss Moo & Howdy from the HLSR and a hayride in the front of the school.
When does my child run?
Your child will come home with a colored wristband indicating their heat time on November 6th. Heat times are as follows:
- Kindergarten (Green): 5:20 PM
- 1st/2nd Grade (Orange): 5:40 PM
- 3rd/4th Grade (Blue): 6:00 PM
There will be a family run at the end. Please ensure your child wears their colored wristband to participate with their grade level.
Where does my child run?
Students will run a marked route in the staff parking lot behind the school. Look for the large red "check-in" flag near your child's run time; we will corral students there a few minutes before the start.
What should my child wear?
The color run is fun, but messy. While the color is washable, we recommend old shoes and an oversized white t-shirt over their regular clothes. The PTO will provide sunglasses and masks if your child would like to wear them.
If my child doesn't want to run, can they still come?
Absolutely! Please join us to enjoy the yard games, hayride, and Kona Ice.
Who can participate in the family run?
Any CFES family!
Will there be food?
Kona Ice will be available for purchase, with a portion of the proceeds supporting the PTO.
Can I volunteer?
Yes! We love it when our parents volunteer. Click HERE to sign up for a shift or two!
If you have additional questions, please reach out to our PTO VPs, Monique Mixon and Ashley Barnhardt, at vicepresident@cfespto.org.
