The purpose of our run/walk is to bring the school and the Maine South community together for some fun, to build bridges to the community, and to support the recipient charity - which for 2019 is the Dup15q Alliance. All ages are welcome! Registration can be done online or on-site. We are also looking for local businesses to join our list of sponsors!
