    D105 Foundation Dash

    April 26, 2026 - 9:00am start time

    The D105 Foundation Dash benefits the schools within District 105 by raising money to sponsor scholarships that empower students to pursue their interests, talents and dreams. Each year, the D105 Foundation awards a $1,500 renewable scholarship to an LT graduate for their college education. We are excited for the Dash this year and cannot wait to see you at the Finish Line!

    This year the D105 Dash will be a non-timed event in a fun run format open to all. If you want to run the race we love that, if you want to walk, we love that too. All are welcome!

    Join us for our annual 5K Walk-A-Thon in support of adolescent physical and mental wellness. This event helps raise funds for our 4-week summer camp serving students in 3rd through 8th grade. More than a summer program, this camp is designed to be a safe, active, and encouraging space for youth during the summer months.

    Led by a longtime Maywood District 89 educator with more than 30 years of service, this initiative is rooted in the belief that adolescents need safe spaces, positive structure, and opportunities to stay active for their overall health and well-being.
