  • Show up at 10am to hang out.
  • Fun run at 11am
  • 5K at 11:30am.



Kids are welcome to sign up for the fun run. It starts at 11:00am. Kids will race age-appropriate distances as a community for fun, and they will all earn a racing memento. We believe that no student should ever be excluded from community events because of the cost of admission. Our fun run has a no cost option, and your registration details are confidential and respected. We want to see you there to celebrate our team at TCGIS. Sponsors can generously support our goal below during sign ups.


The whole family is invited to sign up for the 5K, which will begin at 11:30. You can run, walk, jog, crawl and roll your way to the finish line in a family friendly environment. All finishers will earn an amazing 5K medal. Winners will also receive epic Bavarian steins from M Cornell Imports so they can celebrate their victory in style. We will provide a race clock for the serious runners out there. This race will not be chip-timed.



The TCGIS Capstone Committee will be selling treats to raise funds for our students' senior trip to Germany.
