A run to remember!
From the Director
Thank you for participating in the 24th annual Lew Blond Memorial Run/Walk! What a wonderful day (even with the wind) and more than 600 participants! Your presence made this year's event a tremendous success and helps continue a beloved tradition in Northbrook/Glenview School District 30.
This year's race raised over $25,000 that will support the Les Turner ALS Foundation in honor of former Maple School teacher Lew Blond; scholarships for District 30 alumni pursuing careers in the applied arts; and special District 30 projects.

Thanks to our volunteers and sponsors!
We are tremendously grateful to every single volunteer and sponsor who helped make the Lew Blond Run such a fun and successful day! So much help is needed both before and during the race to ensure all goes smoothly and safely; this race simply would not be possible without our committed volunteers. Likewise, our sponsors add so much to the race, creating a fantastic vendor fair, silent auction, and helping the run to support the Les Turner Foundation, alumni scholarships and District 30 projects. Thank you to all!
Help spread the word for 2026!
It's our 25th anniversary!
