Organiser's Description

SCOOTATHON
This year, we are embracing the organic transformation of Scootathon as an athletic event for grades 5 and younger, on "THE MINI LOOP" IN THE NETHERMEAD OF PROSPECT PARK, directly following May Fair, on Saturday, May 2nd, 2026. "The Big Loop' has been retired. (May Fair, in the morning, continues as an ALL COMMUNITY event.)

HOOPATHON
This is a new and exciting companion fundraiser just for middle schoolers, a basketball sleep-over event taking place on April 24-25 at Brooklyn Waldorf School. All middle schoolers are invited to sign up, either to play ball or help in another capacity, and we hope parents will work hard to fundraise too. Registration is required.

We all all parents will CREATE A FUNDRAISING PAGE to ask their family, friends and colleagues for sponsorship for their child's scooting or hooping. Together, we hope to surpass our goal of raising $30,000 for our school!
