Flyer for the Gold Rush Fun Run taking place March 20, 2026. The flyer features Irish-themed graphics including green shamrocks, gold coins, a pot of gold, and a leprechaun shoe. Text reads: Its coming.. Gold Rush Fun Run. March 20, 2026. We are excited to host a full day of Irish-themed fun for our students! The event will feature four activity stations, including a fun-run track, an inflatable slide, an obstacle course, and a refreshments area. To support this event, we are asking each student to reach out to family and friends (not through door-to-door sales) to help sponsor their participation. All proceeds will go directly to our school, allowing us to invest in meaningful improvements rather than selling items through outside companies. Our fundraising goal this year is to expand our outdoor play area by adding extended concrete slabs and new basketball goals. This enhanced space will be used daily during recess and will also create opportunities for outdoor learning. Thank you for helping us inspire our students to be determined. Be inspired. Be unstoppable. Register your student at www.99pledges.com/fund/ncfunrun2026/addme or scan the code. A QR code is provided at the bottom.

Get Ready for the Gold Rush Fun Run

The Childers PTO is hosting our annual Fun Run on Friday, March 20, 2026. This year’s theme is the Gold Rush, and it will be a full day of Irish-themed excitement for all students!

What to Expect

There will be four fun stations for students to enjoy:

  • The Run Track: Zoom around the course!

  • Inflatable Slide: Climb up and slide down.

  • Obstacle Course: Test your skills and speed.

  • Snack Station: Grab a refreshing treat.

Why We Are Raising Money

We want to make our school even better! Our goal is to grow our outdoor play area by adding new blacktop areas and basketball hoops. This will give everyone more room to play at recess and a cool place for teachers to take classes outside for lessons.

Instead of selling things like wrapping paper or cookie dough, we are asking students to find sponsors. Please ask your family and friends to donate to support your run.

Safety Note: Please do not go door-to-door to strangers. Only ask people you know!

How to sign up

It’s easy to get started:

  1. Students: Register at www.99pledges.com/fund/ncfunrun2026/addme or scan the QR code on the flyer.

  2. Then send the link to family and friends.

  3. Friends & Neighbors: If you don’t have a student at the school but want to help, you can donate directly at https://app.99pledges.com/fund/ncfunrun2026.

Thank you for helping our students stay determined and unstoppable. Let’s make this the best Fun Run ever!
