Running Club
Evergreen Running Club
The Evergreen Running Club gives students a fun, encouraging way to stay active and build healthy habits. Runners meet once a week in early fall to walk or jog a lap course around the Evergreen property, setting goals, tracking progress, and celebrating effort together.
Open to Grades 4 & 5
Who Can Join?
The Evergreen Running Club is open to 4th and 5th grade students who:
- Enjoy running, jogging, or walking with friends.
- Want a fun way to stay active after school.
- Are willing to try their best and encourage others.
All abilities are welcome—students can move at a pace that feels right for them.
About the Club
The club meets once a week for six weeks in early fall. Each week, students:
- Walk or jog a marked course around the Evergreen property.
- Earn Shoe Tokens for each completed lap to track their progress.
- Set personal goals and celebrate milestones along the way.
The season concludes with a celebratory Fun Run, proudly supported by volunteers from the Holmen High School Cross Country (HHS XC) teams.
Meeting Details

- The final Fun Run brings everyone together to recognize effort and growth.
