SUMMARY:Donut Dash/Teachers Treasures Drawing
DESCRIPTION:PSFTC is providing complimentary registration to (10) LSC and (10) TSC teachers for the Donut Dash in Indianapolis on March 22nd. Winners will be selected by random drawing with preference given to teachers that did NOT participate as our guest last year.  Drawing for winners will take place on Monday\, Feb 24. Winners will then receive a promo code to use when registering for the event.  Note you can register as a virtual runner if the event date does not work on your calendar. Free event at a time of your choosing AND receive a $500 shopping trip!! \n\nTSC Teacher Link –  TSC Teacher Link\nLSC Teacher Link –  LSC Teacher Link\nTestimonial from a 2024 participant:\n\n\nI would absolutely do this again! I do not run at all. I hate it. My body is not made for it. But this event was not only so fun\, but also a huge help to me in my first year of teaching! Craft and basic school supplies are not part of my budget\, especially since I teach at a career academy where I need to focus limited funding on bigger machines\, tools\, and supplies for industry skills. The shopping trip was easy\, fun\, and gave me and my students more opportunities through available resources and less time finding simple student/teacher needs. I have even been able to share with other teachers throughout the year knowing that I don’t have to supply my classroom with simple needs myself. I cannot explain enough how much I appreciated this opportunity\, especially since I was barely making enough to support myself and wouldn’t have been able to pay for race registration myself. \n\nI am hopeful to get to run another 5K (and I would never say that for any other race)!\nThank you!\nHayley Grisez\n\n
