Would you like to have your student learn how to exercise safely and instill healthy habits that will last a lifetime? How about challenging them to set a goal, earning a great sense of accomplishment when they do, as well as being motivated with prizes along the way?
If so, we would love to have you join us for another great year of 100 mile club! The 100 Mile Club provides the opportunity to run or walk 100 miles during a single school year which improves school readiness to learn, creates better educational outcomes, builds self-esteem and improves overall health in the lives of children and others.
Please print and complete the form in the link and return it to the front desk along with the $15 registration fee. Once the form is received, you will get a welcome email from the coaches and you will be invited to the private Bill Roberts 100 Mile Club Facebook page. If you don’t get a notification on Facebook, please search for “Bill Roberts 100 Mile Club” and send a request to join.
Before school runs will start on September 3rd
Fill out the registration form and return it to the front office with your $15 registration fee. The fee supports the purchase of prizes runners earn along the way, including a t-shirt once the participant reaches 25 miles! (Students can wear their t-shirt to school on Fridays!)Parents can sign up too, in fact we encourage families to commit to a healthier lifestyle together! The DPS Wellness Program has financial assistance available if needed. Please indicate on your enrollment form if assistance is needed.
You can run anytime starting the first day of school but before school runs will officially begin on September 3rd.
No, it should be a purposeful walk or run for this program. There are so many ways to earn miles! Run or walk to and from school or het your family to walk or run together after dinner.
Once you sign up, complete the registration form and turn it in along with your registration fee, you will receive a confirmation email with an excel tracker spreadsheet or you can use any other method you chose. Please send your child’s mileage totals to the head coach at least monthly. We will send out a reminder every week to total your miles and if your child/children are approaching a milestone (25, 50, 75, 100, etc.) Prizes that correspond to that milestone will be given to the child at 100 mile club or delivered to their teacher’s box when it is achieved.
Last year was one of our best years for participation and we can’t wait to see who joins us for this school year! We are hoping to continue to expand our club in its sixth year. Will your student earn gold this year?
Volunteer Coaches will be introduced via email once you register!
