The race is called “Tonkin For the Love of Schools run” and helps raise money to go towards our school district and into our music and arts programs.  Music and Art Partners raised $3,000 in their fundraiser Tonkin For the Love of Schools Challenge fun run last year.. Tonkin For the Love of Schools run will take place June 7.  The run brought 900 runners to last years race and hope to bring even more this year.  M.A.P also brings  around 150 volunteers for the race each year.  100% of the proceeds go into school program through M.A.P. The money also goes into helping restore their grant funds for 2016. To access the sign ups log onto   www.fortheloveofschools.com.
