🏃♀️ Crocker Cruisers 🏃♂️
Lace up. Set goals. Go the distance.
Crocker Cruisers is our fun, energizing running program that gets students moving during their lunch recess — and it’s all about goal setting, perseverance, and building healthy habits.
📅 When It Happens
Crocker Cruisers runs every Tuesday and Thursday during fall and spring recess. Students use their lunch recess to walk or run laps — each one bringing them closer to completing a full marathon (26.2 miles)!
🥇 Why It Matters
Through Crocker Cruisers, students:
- Learn to set and crush personal goals
- Experience the value of persistence
- Celebrate progress, one step at a time
- Build a lifelong love of fitness and wellness
Whether they’re running, walking, or cheering on friends — every lap counts!
🎽 How It Works
Students track their mileage using Crocker Cruiser Cards, earning special rewards along the way. Each row of tennis shoes completed on their card earns a milestone charm to add to their growing collection!
🎉 Complete Marathon = Celebration Time!
Once a student finishes 26.2 miles, they’ll receive a Crocker Cruisers T-shirt to celebrate their marathon achievement.
Bonus: Students who keep going and complete more marathons will earn extra rewards for each one!
🎊 End-of-Year Picnic & Awards
We celebrate our incredible runners with a year-end picnic for all marathon finishers! It’s a fun, feel-good event that recognizes students’ hard work with:
- Outdoor games & music
- Picnic-style lunch/snacks
- Award ceremony with medals and t-shirts
- Photo ops and cheers from classmates and volunteers
It’s the perfect way to honor every mile ran and every goal reached.
🙌 Powered by Volunteers
This program runs entirely on volunteers — and we need your help to keep it going strong!
