Welcome to the Stone ExtraRace 2026, Season 4.
Friday, November 20th, the race is on.
On Friday, November 20th, (up to) 10 (!!!) teams of competitors — a Faculty team, a Trustee team, Student teams, an Admin team, Alumni Teams, a Lower School Parents team, and a Middle/Upper School Parents team — will race from the front door of The Stone Independent School to Tellus 360 to see who can get there first and dump a cup of water on their head.
Standing between the racers and the Championship Cup of Water? Twenty increasingly difficult challenges – challenges the racers haven’t seen yet – each designed to test their sta stamina and reveal their mettle as they race across Lancaster. Every single dollar we raise during the ExtraGive unlocks harder challenges, and every single dollar we raise during the ExtraGive becomes support for our Financial Aid program.
-
Every $2,500 that we raise will “unlock” a new challenge that the racers will have to complete before they get to Tellus. The Racers don't know what the challenges are -- but we will reveal all of them to our followers at 6pm on Thursday!
-
POWER UPS: the racers have supporters who can help them move more quickly! If you’re a fan of a racer, you can scroll down to "Power Ups" and give them bonuses. Like: access to a RAZR scooter...or maybe even a car.
-
Orrrr POWER DOWNS: You can undermine the racers, too! Scroll down to "Power Downs" if you want to slow a racer down! Power Downs could include anything from doing Yoga With Adrienne in Binn's Park...to driving to Punkeydoodles Corners, Ontario to get a selfie with their hamlet's sign and returning to Lancaster to finish the race!
-
PLUS! Every single person who supports Stone during The ExtraGive will be able to vote on additional challenges thrown in throughout the day until the race is over!
If you support Stone, you can play along at home!!
Stone is one of only a handful of schools in the country that is 100% need blind — that means we meet 100% of our students demonstrated need — and it’s your support of this “extraordinary” race that will help us stay need blind forever.
Meet the Racing Teams.
Stay tuned as we reveal our teams!!!
