Thu, Oct 1
Holland Hospital invites all students, families, friends and faculty to join us for the annual School Nurse Fun Run on Thu, Oct 1 at Kollen Park (new location).
This non-competitive event is for everyone, at any fitness level, offering both a 5K run route and 1.5 mile walk/run route. It’s a perfect way to embody the Fun Run’s motto: “Healthy Families Stay Active” and enjoy an evening outdoors.
More than just a fun event, the School Nurse Fun Run directly supports Holland Hospital's School Nurse Program. Thanks to community support, this initiative has raised over $432,400 since 2013. Come join us and make a difference!
Students Run for FREE by making a goal to improve their health. This could be a physical challenge, a change in eating habits, or starting a new wellness activity.
Since 1998, Holland Hospital’s School Nurse program has been working to improve the health and well-being of students K – 12 in the greater Holland area. The School Nurse Program serves over 13,000 students in 29 school buildings in Holland Public Schools, Holland Christian Schools, Fennville Public Schools, Hamilton Community Schools, West Ottawa Public Schools, and Zeeland Christian Schools.
