About the Walk-A-Thon
The Walk-A-Thon is a school fundraiser where students raise money for The Connection School by collecting donations, and pledges for walking, jogging, or running laps around a trail with 1/3 mile checkpoints. (The average student will complete between 8 and 15 laps during the 90 minute period.) All TCS students and their families are invited to join us for the Walk-A-Thon and then for a picnic lunch! Bring your own lunch or place an order for a hamburger or hot dog cooked at the park. Simply collect pledges, participate in the Walk-A-Thon, and then collect your sponsor's pledges as a donation to TCS!
There will be no school on the day of the event ( 3/20/26).Safety Reminder
