Fun Run 2026
Colonial Park PTO is hosting our Fun Run again! Each elementary school and the Stoneham Early Learning Center are hosting their Fun Run on the same day! It will take place on Friday, April 17, 2026. Proceeds from the Fun Run will support field trips and enrichment opportunities for our school. With help from teachers, administrators, and families, we hope this Fun Run will be a great success, while also encouraging students to be active and work together to achieve a larger goal!
Set up your Donation Page now at PledgeStar.
In 2025 We smashed our previous record and earned over $31,000 in funds for our school!!! Let’s see if we can beat the record again this year!
Fun Run Details
Weather permitting, the Fun Run will be held on the field behind the school. Classes will be split up throughout the morning. All students will participate in the Fun Run. There will be a course set out for 250 meters and 400 meters. Younger students will use the shorter course. Each lap of the course will have a different theme, such as running, walking like a robot, dancing, etc.
Volunteer Opportunities
Parents are welcome to volunteer, or just watch! There will be a link showing volunteer opportunities for the event. We will need help with set up, serving refreshments, clean up, taking photos, transitioning students, etc. If you have any questions or suggestions, please email colonialparkpto.

Fundraising Goals
We would love to raise as much money as possible for our school. This will help keep other fundraising efforts to a minimum and help the PTO dedicate more time to facilitating the best educational opportunities for our students and staff.
We will keep a running tally in our Colonial Park Friends Facebook group and also in our school lobby.
