Join us for our annual fun run as each grade level races their way through obstacles that leave them wet and muddy...how wet and muddy they are is up to your Longhorn! We will have a wash off station, but you might want to bring an extra change of clothes before they get in the car. 

Activities, the Book Fair, and Food Truck are open at 5:00pm and the first grade level race begins at 5:30.

Registration: Click HERE 

Registration for this event will start on Wednesday, April 9th and close two weeks later on Wednesday, April 23rd at midnight. Registration during these dates will ensure your Longhorn will be ordered a shirt and receive a drawstring bag. Wearing your shirt is your "ticket" to run or walk through our obstacle course.

If you register April 24th through race day, you will receive a Race Bib that will allow you to run and/or walk through the course; however you WILL NOT RECEIVE A RACE T-SHIRT, and the drawstring bag is NOT GUARANTEED.

Help us make a difference in the lives of our Longhorns by signing up to volunteer for Stampede!

Although we have high school students helping us, we need ADULT volunteers to help get our obstacles set up, oversee money transactions since students aren't allowed to handle money, supervise things are getting taken care of, and help clean up.  We have different shifts so that you can enjoy time with your family. That means we need more willing people to share the responsibility.

Please click HERE to sign up to volunteer and make this event run smoothly.
