A 5K run that takes participants on a scenic run down on the trails to Long Dock Park before having to tackle a steep hill on Knevels Avenue leading them back to Sargent.
The 5K begins at 9:30 am, and a Kids Fun Run, offering a shorter run at Sargent led by physical education teacher Ryan Koval, begins at 9 am. All money raised goes toward Sargent’s PTO to help with its endeavors to support the school. Since Thanksgiving is not too long after this, participants are being asked to bring a canned or non-perishable food item as part of a food drive that goes to Fareground Food + Community We are proud to join the "On Wednesdays We Wear Pink" initiative for the second year in a row, along with many other schools and organizations across the country. Throughout the month of October, we ask that students and staff wear pink every Wednesday to show their support for those affected by breast cancer.
Breast cancer is the second most common cancer among women in the U.S., with 1 in 8 women developing some form of the disease in their lifetime. While breast cancer is less common in men, affecting less than 1%, they too can face this battle. At the Sargent PTO, we recognize how deeply breast cancer has affected our community. We invite you to join us in honoring those who are currently fighting this battle, celebrating the survivors, and remembering those we have lost. This October 25th from 6pm-7:30pm (rain date Nov 1), all ghosts and ghouls are invited to journey through the spooky wilds of the Upper Lot along a frightful series of Halloween-themed trunks ripe for trick-or-treating. Afterward, dance along with the music in an eerie graveyard, take your family's picture in a ghostly photo area, or purchase some non-candy fare. Come dressed in your Halloween best!
