What is Jog-A-Thon?
The Jog-A-Thon is an annual fundraising event put on by each Zionsville Elementary school. This event was created to reduce the number of fundraisers needed to support our students and school staff throughout the year. It is the only fundraiser where we ask students to directly participate and one of only TWO fundraising events throughout the year.
The Jog-A-Thon takes place on the trail in the back of Eagle Elementary, and students will be given time to jog (or walk) as many laps as they can. All students, grades PreK-4, will participate throughout the day at different times. They will be provided a Jog-A-Thon t-shirt to wear that day and given popsicles to celebrate!
New This Year!!!
