Mileage Club

Program Contact: Winnie Chen

About:

Mileage Club is an exercise incentive program that is run at lunchtime every Thursday. Children are encouraged to walk, jog or run laps around Steindorf’s track while adult volunteers mark off their lap card for each revolution. At the end of the month, each child will receive a running foot trinket that can be put onto their Mileage Club Necklace, for every mile (5 laps) they have run. The awards are designed to provide children with a sense of accomplishment, recognition and a source of positive image building.

Mileage Club is a great way to keep kids active and physically fit. It gives them a reason to set an exercise goal for themselves, helps them make new friends, and most of all, gives them something to do with other people while not necessarily competing with, or against anyone.

Additional Awards:

Before the holiday break in December, the top 3 runners win a gift card
At the end of the school year, if a student completes 20 miles or more, an announcement is made at the Thursday assembly and they receive a medal
