Event Description

Scootathon has been a beloved Brooklyn Waldorf tradition since 2009, when it was founded by a group of parents as a fundraiser for the new little school bringing Waldorf education to Brooklyn.  IT IS NOT ACTUALLY A RACE, it is a challenge you will make yourself and ask your sponsors to support, on behalf of BWS.

We're all in this together to have fun and raise money for our wonderful school, where we believe in educating the whole person - "hands, hearts and heads".

"The Big Loop" is 3/4 of the main park drive, with a section that passes directly past the Nethermead area, allowing for cheering our riders as they pass.
Adults and students 5th grade and above are encouraged to scoot the Big Loop! Skateboarding, biking, running are also allowed. We salute however you ride the loop! (Only adults are asked to "sign up", BWS students can just ride)

"The Mini Loop" is the small paved sidewalk path that encircles the Nethermead (but is not entirely visible from the Nethermead lawn). This loop is reserved for small children and students up to 4th grade, and scooting is the preferred vehicle. Children are not asked to "sign up" here.
