Each class walks as a group with their “homeroom”. Parents, grandparents, and families are welcome to walk with the class or line the route.
This is a stroller-friendly event.

The walks at 9:45 AM and 11:00 AM will include the student-beloved bubble foam pit and spray area!
Bring on the water: Adults may bring water dispensing devices to squirt water on the students at the K-2nd and 3rd -8th grade walks as long as they meet our safety standards.
Students may not dispense water on the adults. The “plunger or syringe” type of devices are NOT allowed…any size or shape, purchased or homemade.

Parents are also invited to tailgate in the parking lot around the perimeter – refer to map below.
Bring lawn chairs, and cheer on the students with noisemakers, bubbles, pompoms, and more!
There will be prizes for the best tailgating!
