Run Riverside: 5K & 1 Mile Ram Run

Come “Run Riverside” with us! This family-friendly run will be held on Saturday, April 26, 2025 at 5:00 PM. 5K runners will explore the Riverside community, from Five Points to King Street, past the Cummer Museum, Memorial Park, the Cheek Castle House, and SunRay Cinemas. 1 Mile Ram Runners will encounter fun surprises along their route! Following the run, visit the finish line festival for dinner from local food trucks and fun and games for the entire family!

Capers

Capers is RPDS’s annual fundraising event, typically held in late winter. Each year, a parent committee works alongside our Advancement team to select a theme and plan a wonderful evening for parents, alumni, and friends of RPDS to continue strengthening connections with one another and build awareness around RPDS’s commitment to remain a strong corporate citizen.
