West Springfield Pyramid Challenge
The West Springfield Pyramid Challenge is a FREE fun run that started years ago with the goal of introducing cross-country running, encouraging community involvement, and fostering school spirit among the elementary schools of the West Springfield Pyramid. This year's event will take place on Saturday, November 15 from 10:00am-12:00pm at Washington Irving Middle School. Students from the participating elementary schools will run a half-mile or one-mile course, depending on their grade level. This year's event also includes a unified heat with an accessible 200-meter course for students with physical and cognitive disabilities. The participating elementary schools are: Cardinal Forest, Hunt Valley, Keene Mill, Orange Hunt, Rolling Valley, Sangster and West Springfield.
