On Thursday, November 5th, the PGS 4th-8th graders are participating in the first ever PGS5K Walk/Run/Race, and we would like to invite their parents to come see them compete.
On 5K day, there will be designated areas for the parents to stand and cheer on their runner. The 5K starts at 9:00am, we would encourage everyone to be parked and in place by 8:45am due to our parking lots both being part of the 5K course.
Since we will be outside, masks are not required, but will be necessary if you want to interact with students after their 5K. Social Distancing will also be required while spectating.
The event will be over by 10:30am at the latest.
