Alston Ridge PTA hosts one major fundraiser at the start of each school year. This event provides most of the funding for the activities the PTA supports throughout the year. For the past six years, we have partnered with Apex Leadership Co., a local organization that promotes leadership, positivity, and fitness. We are especially excited about the 2026 Fun Run event this year – the Apex team will be on campus for four weeks this fall to teach students about leadership and fitness. During the Apex program, students will be encouraged to seek pledges for the laps they will complete on event day.
The Apex theme for 2025-26 will be announced soon!
Apex Fun Run Dates for 2025:
Tracks 3 & 4 – TBD
Tracks 1 & 2 – TBD
