About the Milton Monster Dash & Sam's Fund
The Milton Monster Dash is organized by the Milton Foundation for Education (MFE), a non-profit group that funds innovative programs and opportunities that are beyond the reach of the Milton Public School's budget.
All proceeds of the Monster Dash benefit the Sam Cichello Memorial Fund which was created in 1999 in loving memory of Sam Cichello, a Tucker Elementary School student who died following a playground accident.
To honor Sam’s love of science, all proceeds of the Monster Dash-Sam’s Fund support science enrichment in the Milton public schools.
"In loving memory of Sam Cichello. Supporting Science Enrichment in Milton’s four Elementary Schools."

Family Discount
We understand that some families are larger than others and we don't want a family's size and corresponding registration fee to be the deciding factor in whether they can participate. So, we created a Family Discount.
A Family Discount caps the total registration cost at $75 for families who have multiple people participating in either the 5K and/or Kids Fun Ticket. If a family’s total registration cost for all members exceeds $75, they should choose the "Family Discount" option during the very first record entered during their registration session. It doesn't matter whether family members choose 5K or Kids Fun. To add family members, choose "Add Additional Participant" at the Cost Summary page until all family members are registered.
Choose Family Discount at the very beginning of your registration session. Choose Additional Individual to add family members. When all family members have been entered, continue and finalize registration session.
* NOTE * - The Family Discount option is intended to be used for immediate family members only. Please use this feature appropriately.
Course
The standard "Milton 5K Course"
Edge Hill to Gun Hill to Randolph to Center to Brook to Governors to Edge Hill to Finish line & glory.
Directions
Take Edge Hill or Pleasant Street and make a right/left into Cunningham Park , which is across the street from Cunningham / Collicot schools.
T-Shirts
T-shirts are for 5K runners only and are guaranteed to the first 500 pre-registered runners. T-shirts are not for the Kids Fun Ticket.
(If you are registering your child for the Kids Fun Ticket, there is a small chance you'll be required to provide a t-shirt size for your child while registering. This is a glitch in the system. Pick a size in order to continue your registration session, but please be aware that the "t-shirts are for 5K runners only" rule still applies. We sincerely apologize for any confusion this may cause. We'll do better next year.)

Pre-Race Bib Pick-up & Early
An early pre-race bib pick-up session is scheduled for Saturday, October 24th from 2 - 4pm at Cunningham Hall. We strongly encourage participants – especially large teams – to take advantage of this early bib pick-up session and avoid the lines Sunday morning. Team captains can pick-up all bibs for their team.
