From the Organizer
Join us for the 2nd Annual Excel Eagle Trot Family Fun Run! We’re bringing the entire Excel community together—students, parents, guardians, alumni, families, and friends—for a morning filled with fun, movement, and Eagle pride!
Last year, the Eagle Trot helped fund important campus security improvements. This year, we’re setting our sights even higher with a $16,000 fundraising goal to purchase a new sound system for our gym.
Every step and every dollar makes a difference. With 100% of proceeds going directly to the PTO, your participation helps create lasting improvements for our school community.
With our amazing Excel community behind us, we know we can soar past our goal! Come run, walk, cheer, and celebrate with us—and help make this year’s Eagle Trot our best one yet!
