  The Farragut Primary School PTO is hosting its first 5K Dolphin Dash Fundraiser. The event will take place on Saturday, April 25, 2026 at the Primary School. We will have kids dashes (ages 3-8 years old) and the 5K run/walk with prizes for place finishers. The Dolphin Dash is planned around family, fun, fitness and community!

  Finley’s Fun Run is a separate but related event to the Dolphin Dash 5K and will take place on Thursday, April 23, during your student’s Encore time.

  Because this event is held during the school day, every FPS student will have the opportunity to participate. Children will run laps outdoors in the grassy area on campus, or inside the gym if weather does not cooperate. Our fantastic FPS music teachers will be DJing the event, and each participant will receive a healthy snack and a ribbon upon completing their run.

  Our goal is to come together as a community by supporting our school and children so that they may have a better education. All proceeds will be used by FPS PTO to fund additional playground equipment designed specifically for students with limited mobility or that require aid to access the existing playground equipment. These students will be able to enjoy expanded independent play areas alongside their peers. Our hope is to raise $20,000 to purchase items that will be available for student use during the 2026-27 school year and beyond.

  We hope you’ll consider supporting this exciting event with a donation. Thank you for helping make Finley’s Fun Run and the Dolphin Dash a memorable experience for our students!

  If you are interested in donating or sponsorship opportunities, please email us at fpsptodolphindash@gmail.com

  Thank you for your continued support!
