It's time to join the Indiana Area Education Foundation as we kickstart our inaugural STEP UP FOR STUDENTS 5K run! The 5K course will take you around the lovely S&T arena grounds, East Pike Elementary School, and through the woods! There will also be an inclusive walking route around the paved paths available if running a 5k isn't your thing!
After the race is over, hang around with us for an exciting foam party with music, along with local food trucks! We can't wait to see you there for a morning of celebration, all for a good cause!
The Indiana Area Education Foundation is a charitable organization founded by community members who are committed to making a difference in our community. IAEF has made big strides this past year in funding initiatives, improvements, student athletics and clubs, and more! Your donations make a direct and lasting impact within our district and we are tremendously grateful for the support that we receive. This year alone we have supported school projects like the Green Bandana Project, provided weight sleds for our SH fitness center, helped the SH Dance Team compete in their first ever national competition, and much more!
Details about the race packet pickup will be coming soon. If you cannot pick up your race packet and are unable to come to the event, you MUST pick up your race packet from IAEF at 501 East Pike Road (Admin entrance, not EP Elementary). Packets and shirts will NOT be mailed out.
See map below. The 5K is a challenging cross-country course which will begin at the lower pavilion and go around the baseball fields, over to East Pike, around the soccer fields, up a steep, rocky hill, and snake back around to the finish. The 1-mile inclusive "fun run" will be on the paved paths around the baseball fields. We are proud to offer an inclusive and friendly paved route so that everyone can participate!
Coming soon!
Parking will be at S&T Arena. The lower pavilion will briefly be open for drop-offs but no parking in that area will be allowed. If S&T fills up, the East Pike Elementary parking lot will be available. PLEASE ARRIVE EARLY since we will be closing the entrance to both S&T Arena and East Pike Elementary for the safety of our racers.
Once the Awards are completed, Foam Party of Pittsburgh will be playing music and spraying foam out of cannons off in the grass near the pavilion, for those who choose to participate. We will also have food trucks on-site! Join us for a good cause and a morning of celebration as the Foundation kicks off its inaugural 5K, STEP UP FOR STUDENTS!
