Boosterthon

The Houghton Boosterthon is our biggest and most successful fundraising event in which all of the students of Houghton participate in a fun glow run in the gymnasium. 

So, you may be wondering, “What exactly happens at the Boosterthon Fun Run event?” Here’s a quick run-down of what you can expect at the end of our 9-day fitness, leadership, and character-based program. Students Running for a Leader Launch themed event eight days before the Boosterthon Fun Run event begins, students will learn about this year’s character theme, World Changer Workshop. 

Each day brings a new character action to learn and another day closer to the Boosterthon Fun Run event. Our fun, fitness event will Encourage your children to let loose, be active and Play with their classmates! 

All parents are invited to join us by attending the event and cheering on students as they run an average of 30-35 laps around the Boosterthon Speedway. The Boosterthon Fun Run event is also designed to Celebrate every student learning valuable character and leadership principles while helping their school.  

The Boosterthon Fun Run event is a high-energy day, full of enthusiasm from students, teachers, and of course, Boosterthon team members. Each grade assembles in the gym and has a blast running laps while parents and teachers cheer them on, waving homemade signs, snapping pictures, and clanging Bam-Bams provided by the Boosterthon team.
