From the Organizer
Lace up your sneakers and join us for the First Annual Panther Prowl 3K - hosted by the Ludlow PTO!
The Panther Prowl is a community-wide race designed to bring together students, families, alumni, friends, and neighbors for a fun morning of movement and community spirit!
The 3K course will wind through the streets of Ludlow, beginning and finishing at the River Stage. Whether you’re a seasoned runner, casual walker, stroller pusher, young kiddo, or just looking for a fun way to get moving with your friends and family - everyone is welcome!
And this isn’t just for Ludlow Panthers - the Panther Prowl is OPEN TO ALL AGES and everyone is invited to participate. We want our friends and families from Ludlow and all of our surrounding communities to join us!
Every dollar raised goes directly back to our school - helping the PTO provide more activities, opportunities, and fun for our students throughout the school year.
We’re hoping to make the Panther Prowl more than just a race. We want it to become a special Ludlow tradition that grows bigger and better every year!
So grab your family, gather your friends, lace up, and come PROWL with us!
