Willow Springs' PTA's Annual Fundraiser
Students are invited to find sponsors that will donate to their fun run! Donations are collected as a lump sum online through our fuss-free fundraising site. To reach our fundraising goal, we are asking a $35 donation per child, but any amount really helps.

Parents, siblings, and spectators are invited to cheer on their student along the running route and at aid stations! Please visit the link below for details on what to expect this year!
