About this race

Join us for the 15th annual Ranger Run presented by the Deerpark Middle School PTA @ 9am on Saturday, November 7, 2026. The Ranger Run is not only attended by the families at Deerpark Middle School, the five feeder elementary schools, and the high school (McNeil) but also friends and neighbors around our community. Historically we have had more than 400 runners - since being back after COVID, we are working on getting back to that number!

This year is the 3rd year for our 1 mile run in addition to our standard chip-timed 5K course! The 1 mile will not be timed but was added to include individuals that may not want to do the 5k but want to participate in the Ranger Run!  And despite having the word "Run" in the name, there will be plenty of walkers as well! 

All funds raised by the Ranger Run go directly back to support the teachers, staff, and students of Deerpark Middle School. Learn more about our programs here: deerparkmspta.org

Bring the whole family to this special event at the beautiful Rattan Creek Park Community Center. Strollers are welcome!

Register by October 1st to be guaranteed a Ranger Run T-shirt!
