This RUN is our homegrown fundraiser;  a combination of our strong community and student driven mission.  Each Pioneer student in grades K-8th, is charged with raising essential funds by garnering sponsors for a multi-loop trail run across our incredible campus.  Students train for the event in PE class and even the most reluctant of runners can be seen finishing the event with a smile on their face. Sponsor goals are tallied and posted in the days prior to the event -personally, as a class and as a whole community. In addition to gaining interpersonal skills by asking family, friends and neighbors for sponsorships, students are also able to use their own creativity and entrepreneur skills by posting videos, hosting lemonade stands and selling baked goods, crafts etc.  Students are also able to articulate why their school needs funding as well as what they love about PSCS and then they create how to share that information with family, friends and their community! ​ 
This year we are rolling out our 1st ever High School Medley; amazing race meets double-dare meets the 11+ acres of Pioneer Springs! High School students will form teams of eight students and navigate a unique set of challenges in our Salmagundi Dundee (a miscellaneous collection and the Scottish definition including fort and fire). Teams will traverse the campus and alternate players as the complete an archery challenge, a mud obstacle, a pond obstacle, a basketball free-throw challenge, a fire building challenge, answering a riddle down at the Old General Store with Silas Davis and much more! Students are asked to each raise $225. Teams will gain advantages in time and free passes as they meet pre-determined sponsor goals.  This is sure to become a lasting PSCS tradition!
