Fundraising Purpose
This event is a fundraiser for the Oakland Tech PTSA, which provides invaluable funding for student programs and activities. Every dollar makes a difference for our students. The PTSA supports the Oakland Tech Cross Country team by covering costs for meet entry fees, training equipment, nutrition, and travel — all essential for helping our runners perform at their best.
Tradition of Excellence
Oakland Tech Cross Country athletes have a proud tradition of success, with varsity cross country teams winning the Oakland League Championship for three of the past four years. Your participation helps continue this tradition of excellence.
