The Fountains 10k Race will take place on 15^th May

This will be our main fundraising event of the year, and is being held as a combined venture with both the Friends of Fountains school and The Friends of Grewelthorpe School to raise money for both Grewelthorpe and Fountains Primary Schools.

There is a lot of work that goes in to an event like this, and I would therefore be eternally grateful if any of you lovely folk could sign up to one of the pre-race jobs (which I have tried to break down into 30-minute tasks), and/or sign up to be a volunteer on race day.

We have produced some “live documents” which can be used to sign up to any jobs or roles that you can help out with. Please follow the links below and type your name in the “volunteer” column, which will automatically update the document for everyone to ensure we don’t get multiple people volunteering for the same jobs!

The sign-up sheet for the pre-race and race day roles/jobs can be found here:

There is a separate sign-up sheet for sourcing sponsors and raffle prizes, which can be found here:

Thank you all for your help. We really couldn’t pull something like this off if it wasn’t for the help of all of our wonderful volunteers and parents.

Team work makes the dream work! Together we can achieve great things!

Lots of love
