But this race is about more than miles — it’s about building a brighter future for Kilby students. All proceeds from the event support the Kilby Laboratory School PTO’s initiative to build a new, modern playground that inspires active play, imagination, and inclusion. Our goal is to raise $150,000, and thanks to dedicated families and supporters, we’ve already raised $25,000. Your race registration or donation helps us take the next big stride.
