The annual event raises money for the PTOs at Lakeview Elementary and the Solon Intermediate School and will be held again Saturday, April 25

The annual Spartan Dash fundraiser will be held Saturday, April 25, 8 a.m-12 p.m. at Solon Recreation and Nature Area (SRNA)

This annual 1 mile all-ages family fun run with obstacles (also concessions, raffle prizes, a photographer, and a DJ) through the SRNA is the largest fundraiser for the Parent-Teacher Organizations (PTO) at Lakeview Elementary and Solon Intermediate School.

Funds raised go toward:

• Teacher discretionary funds (unfunded classroom supplies and teaching aides)

• Classroom programs and technology subscriptions

• Field trips and more!

Heat times start every 5-10 minutes and start times have been updated this year to make it easier for everyone to join in and dash alongside friends. Last year over 650 participated in the event.
