For those new to the PRA community, our Miner Gold Rush (MGR) and Fall Festival kicks off the school year by bringing our families together for a fun day of community building. The Fall Festival will include entertainment options such as Mining for Gold, bounce houses, carnival games, face painting, the full Ninja Nation obstacle course and more!
We’re excited to offer a wide range of Family Sponsorship and Business Sponsorship levels, featuring perks such as race vouchers, PRA swag, event recognition and more.
Be sure to mark your calendars and get your registration submitted early for this year’s Miner Gold Rush! Not only is the event a great way to help support PRA, but it is a fun and unique way to connect with other PRA families in our community.
Student and adult volunteer opportunities for the 2026 Miner Gold Rush and Fall Festival will be shared in the coming weeks! Be on the lookout for links in Miner Mail to get a jumpstart on volunteer hours for the 2026-27 school year.
