Crocker Cruisers is program that operates on Tuesday and Thursday’s during student’s recess time in the fall and spring. Students run (or walk) during their lunch recess to accumulate miles towards their marathon. Students learn goal setting, perseverance, good health habits and a love of running through Crocker Cruisers!

This program runs solely on volunteers (sign up link below) who help track progress on Crocker Cruiser cards and handing out charms as milestones are completed. Volunteers punch cards, hand out charms and cheer on the runners.  Ask your student what color card they are on or what charm they are working towards at home!

Crocker Cruisers Cards

Upon completion of each row of tennis shoes students will receive various charms to celebrate their progress toward a full marathon.

Completed Marathon Rewards

Students will receive a Crocker Cruisers t-shirt when they complete their marathon. If they elect to complete additional marathons, they will also receive additional rewards for each marathon they finish!

Teachers have reported that on Crocker Cruiser days, the students come back to class more focused and ready to work.  We are so lucky to have this opportunity for our students and hope that you are able to volunteer sometime! Weather permitting, Crocker Cruisers is every Tuesday and Thursday in the fall and spring 2 volunteer shifts – pick the one that works best for you!  This program is 100% driven by volunteers and the giggles and smiles make it well worth it!!
