This year, Hillsdale Elementary did a Fun Run for our school fund raiser on March 17. Students worked hard at getting donations for their participation in the run. On the day of the run, everyone had a great time running laps to great music outside on the field. Each grade level had an hour to run. Lots of teachers and staff joined them. Laps were tallied and some students earned prizes for running the most laps. The classes with the most laps earned a pizza party.
We had our Fun Run awards assembly on March 23 where students who participated with donations had a chance to win a variety of great prizes. Lots and lots of businesses supported us by donating prizes for kids to win. The businesses that helped us out were:
- Smashburger at Valley Fair Mall
- Boondocks in Draper
- Sweet Tooth Fairy at Valley Fair Mall
- Jazz tickets from Utah Jazz
- Bees Tickets from the Bees
- Rumbi at Valley Fair Mall
- Hale Center Theater tickets
- Real Salt Lake tickets
- Costco of Valley Fair Mall
- Pretzel Maker at Valley Fair Mall
- Discover Gateway Children’s Museum tickets
- Clark Planetarium tickets
- In-n-Out Burger at Valley Fair Mall
- Super Cuts across from the Valley Fair Mall

- Jet Blue plane tickets
Thank you to everyone who donated and to everyone that helped to make this event so successful and fun for the kids. We were able to earn over $5,000 that will be used for field trips, activities, student awards, and benefits every student at the school is a variety of ways.
