It’s time for the 14th annual Trojan Nation sponsored by the Maroa-Forsyth Community Club!  What is the Trojan Nation?  The Trojan Nation is a wellness race that serves as our Community Club’s primary Spring Fundraiser. The inflatable obstacle course races will be done inside during school hours on Friday, May 1, 2026 and all elementary students Pre K-5 will be able to participate. Prior to the event, students will request donations from family, friends, neighbors, local businesses. This is a fun and healthy activity for our students, with the donation proceeds going directly back to our school.

Did you know that the Community Club has helped fund many items the students enjoy?  The Community Club has been able to fund items such as indoor recess activities, reading materials, technology for the classrooms, as well as assist with the school wide art projects.  In addition, we sponsor the Back-to-School Carnival, Family Literacy Night, Splash Cove and many other events throughout the school year.  All of these are made possible by the generosity of friends, family, and community support of MFGS and the MFCC.  Help us raise money by pledging an amount to your student today.  Remember all proceeds go directly back to the students of the grade school.

We are asking for your help to make the TROJAN NATION a success.  Today your child came home with an envelope containing a donation and design of keepsake t-shirt. Please help your child contact family, friends and neighbors to ask if they would consider making a donation to the Maroa-Forsyth Grade School Community Club.  Students have about 3 weeks to collect donations.  All money must be turned in by April 10th, 2026.  

Those students who collect $25.00 or more will receive an exclusive keepsake t-shirt for this event.  

Maroa-Forsyth parents who are ADM colleagues can maximize their donations to the Trojan Trot fundraiser through ADM’s Matching Gift program.  ADM will match colleagues’ personal contributions of $100 or more.  Colleagues may visit www.adm.com/colleaguegiving to enter a matching gift application and learn more about ADM Cares programming.

THANK YOU MFGS Community for your support and we appreciate all the volunteers willing to help make our Trojan Nation Fundraiser an amazing one!
