🏃♂️ Run the Valley Center Hornet Hustle!
Are you ready? WE ARE!!!
Abilene Elementary, West Elementary, Wheatland Elementary and Valley Center Intermediate School are back for the annual Hornet Hustle on September 6, 2025!
This community tradition has become a favorite for our families, friends and running enthusiasts alike! This family friendly event is hosted completely by volunteers, all from Abilene, West, Wheatland Elementary and VCIS PTOs with 100% of the proceeds to go back to all 4 schools, equally.
The races will begin at 8 a.m. on September 6th at VCIS. Join us as we kick off with 5K Road Race, followed by a 2-mile Road Race, a 1-mile Family Fun/Walk Run and a ¼ mile or the 50-yard dash for our smaller runners. We have student registration for those 19 and under!
