CLASS DONATION LINKS ARE LIVE!
The Color Gallop is one our most popular fundraising events among our students. It is a wonderful way for our community to come together and celebrate the beginning of a new year. A spirited and joyful competition to raise funds by class ahead of the big race builds excitement and brings the kiddos together. Donate online with our Zeffy site, or send cash or checks to school in your student's envelope. Keep a look out for more information coming home in your student's folders, the e-newsletter and via our private PTA Facebook Group.
VOLUNTEERS MAKE THIS EVENT HAPPEN!

Below is what you need to know
What: Fun mile-run, with toxic-free, kid-friendly paint powder stations, color is gently tossed on runners. A great way for our Stonebridge community to come together, raise some $$, be active and celebrate.
Where: Stonebridge Elementary School
When: Saturday, September 27th. 9:00 AM - 10:30 AM (Rain Date: Sunday, September 28th, 1:00 -2:30 pm)
What to Wear: Students can wear their Color Gallop t-shirts. Others can wear anything comfy, fun for working out and playing around. Feel free to jazz up your outfit with crazy colors, socks, tutus, whatever you want! FYI - the color shouldn’t stain, but we can’t guarantee it won’t. Shoes and socks may get wet from the morning dew...and sunglasses for runners don’t hurt either!
What to Do: Besides the fun run, there will be music, photo booth, crazy hair, and fun announcements about our fundraising efforts. Coffee, water, and fruit also provided. We also suggest you bring your own water bottles to cut down on waste!
PLEASE NOTE: This is not a drop-off event, plan to stay and participate with or cheer on your students!
