5K Walk/Jog/Run for Jon

As many of you may already know, a valued member of our Nonnewaug school community, Jon Cheung, was recently diagnosed with Leukemia.  Just as he always has done in the classroom, on the sports fields, and in life, Jon is giving his all in this fight and the whole community is behind him.  Our chapter of the Math Honor Society, of which Jon is a member want to show support and help raise funds to assist with the medical costs that his recover process involves so that him and his family can focus their attention on his health.  To that end, we have planned a charity 5K walk/jog/run on Nonnewaug's campus for the 23rd of May. 

During and after the race, there will be activities and other things to do for everyone including friends and family members that come to cheer on racers. This currently includes music, raffles, an optional, untimed 1 mile race for kids in the enclosed track area, inflatables(bounce house, obstacle course, etc), face-painting for the kids, Cornhole boards, 2x4 Jenga, Disc Golf, footballs and frisbees to throw around, information about project GradNite, a bake sale, and more. There will also be a booth where you can write a note of support and kindness to Jon. All members of the community are welcome to come by even if they are not participating in the main race.

We hope you will show your support by signing up and enjoying a fun race with music, games, food, and more.  If you have any questions, please email rrobillard@ctreg14.org or text 860-605-3730.

 

The race will be hand timed by our students and results will be posted afterwards.
