Run for Fun

Cathedral Pulpit Green
(Rain Location: Cathedral Crypt Gym)

Run for Fun is an annual event where Cathedral students, as well as their pre-school-aged siblings, race in recreational sprints. Every participant will receive a ribbon, and the top three finishers in every grade-specific heat will receive a commemorative medal. 

To register a child, purchase a “Run for Fun Registration” in the Spring Fair Store: here. The entry fee entitles students to a race number, as well as a participation ribbon. Registrations purchased by April 12, 2026, will also receive a FREE Spring Fair T-shirt designed by talented Cathedral 7th graders

All Lower School registrants MUST be accompanied by an adult.  

Note: After School classes will take place on Friday, May 8, despite the concurrent Run for Fun. It is the parent’s choice whether to send your child late or to skip the class.

Please send an email to After School coordinator Monika Jasinska (mjasinska@cathedralnyc.org)  if your child will miss some/all of the Friday After School.

A festive annual tradition held on the Cathedral Close, featuring: fair games, rides, prizes, bake sale, and more! All friends, family, and members of the community are welcome!

While the event is open to the public, games and rides can only be accessed by presenting tickets or wristbands, which may be purchased in advance or on the day of the fair. 

Wristbands: Wristbands provide unlimited access to rides (Bounce House, Accelerator Slide, and Turbo Tubs), but cannot be used to access games. Wristbands may be purchased the day of the fair for $40, or at a substantially discounted price from the Spring Fair store before May 1, 2026.

Tickets: Tickets are required to play games, and may also be used to purchase single rides, as well as select snack and beverage offerings sold by the Parents Association. Tickets may be purchased the day of the fair for $1/ticket, or $20/22 tickets, or at a substantially discounted price from the Spring Fair Store before May 1, 2026.

Due to space limitations, there is no rain backup location for Spring Fair.
