The Plumas Charter School Mountain Valley Parents Club (Quincy Site) is inviting the community to lace up their running shoes and join in the Monster Dash 5K Family Friendly Fun Run on Sunday, October 19, at Feather River College. The race begins at 8:30 a.m., and participants are encouraged to come in costume for a festive start to the Halloween season.

This year, PCS MVP Club is simplifying its fundraising efforts by hosting one major event instead of multiple smaller ones. The Monster Dash 5K will help PCS reach its annual fundraising goal, with all proceeds supporting student activities and enrichment programs.

All currently enrolled PCS students are welcome to participate free of charge. To support the fundraiser, each student is asked to raise $50 in pledges toward the overall goal. Families can collect donations using pledge envelopes that will be sent home in October, or supporters can give online through the event’s registration page.

Community members are encouraged to register online ahead of time at:

“The Monster Dash 5K is not just a fun way to celebrate the season—it’s also an important way for our school community to come together in support of students,” said Nova Collinson, event organizer. “We hope to see families, friends and neighbors out running, walking or cheering on our participants.”
The MVP Club is also looking for volunteers to help with event planning and race-day logistics. Anyone interested can contact the Quincy site representative Alyia Pilgrim at [email protected], or reach out to Collinson directly at [email protected].
