🍩🏃 Ready. Set. EAT! 🏃🍩

Mark your calendars for Saturday, October 3rd... the Grafton Donut DASH is back, and it’s more delicious than ever! 
This fun-filled fundraiser for Grafton High School Cross Country isn’t just a race… it’s a sweet sprint to donut glory!
Here’s how it works: We’ll run in heats of 15. At the sound of the starting gun, you’ll chow down on your first donut 
(provided, fresh, and amazing) then run one lap around the track. When you get back, it’s straight to the 
Donut Exchange Zone for donut #2… and repeat until you’ve devoured 4 donuts + 4 laps. First one to cross the 
finish line wins bragging rights and the title of fastest donut devourer in town!

🎉 Bonus fun:

+ Dress up, go crazy with costumes, and bring the energy!
+ All ages and abilities welcome—yes, that means YOU!
+ Special 10 & under category where the kids race with donut holes instead of full donuts.
+ Every participant scores a sweet Grafton Donut DASH t-shirt, plenty of donuts, great music, and endless fun.

So the real question is… How fast can YOU run a mile while eating 4 donuts?

Come find out, and help support our amazing Grafton Cross Country teams!
