Race Day Registration: 7:00 – 8:15 am

This is a fundraiser hosted by St. John’s Lutheran School. We are a “faith-based” school. This means that Jesus is at the center of everything that is taught. Not only do we learn about Jesus during daily religion time, but He is at the core of our curriculum and discipline. Our school mission statement is: “St. John’s Lutheran School supports families in the development of solid Christian character and skills for life-long excellence.” It is our hope and prayer that every child who walks through our doors will someday walk through God’s heavenly door. All proceeds from the race will directly benefit St. John’s Lutheran School.
