Annual Run for Education to Take Place in San Ramon Valley on October 13th
In the vibrant city of San Ramon, California, two exciting events are set to take place, each offering unique opportunities for the community to come together and support education.
On Sunday, October 12, 2025, the San Ramon Valley Education Foundation will host the 42nd Annual Run for Education. This community-focused event aims to promote fitness and education support, with participants encouraged to walk, run, roll, or stroll at their own pace. The event includes a Kids' Zone, sponsored by local organizations, and is a great opportunity for families and friends to support education in the area [1][3][4].
Registration details for the 42nd Annual Run for Education will be available closer to the event date, typically through the San Ramon Valley Education Foundation’s channels or local City of San Ramon resources.
Separately, the Lunar New Year Festival will take place on February 18 in City Center, San Ramon. This event is free to attend and encourages participation from friends, family, and colleagues. Unlike the Run for Education, the Lunar New Year Festival does not offer a 5K or 10K course, kids' zone, inflatable games, face painting, balloon artists, food trucks, or entertainment from California High Cheer or Diablo Vista Middle School Jazz Band [1].
For the most accurate and updated information on both events, monitoring the San Ramon Valley Education Foundation website or local San Ramon community announcements is recommended. It's essential to note that these events are separate from those offered by Facebook, Pinterest, or Nextdoor, as well as Restaurant Week in San Ramon, which is scheduled for September 13-22 [1].
The funds raised from the Run for Education will support STEAM grants and programs across schools in the San Ramon Valley Unified School District, while the Lunar New Year Festival supports schools in the cities of Alamo, Danville, and San Ramon [1]. The Lunar New Year Festival is not directly related to the San Ramon Valley Education Foundation, unlike the Run for Education, which is organized by the foundation.
Both events serve as a testament to the commitment of the San Ramon community to education and the celebration of diverse cultural traditions. The 42nd Annual Run for Education and the Lunar New Year Festival promise to be memorable occasions for all who attend.

On Sunday, October 12, 2025, outdoor-living enthusiasts and family members can participate in the 42nd Annual Run for Education, a home-and-garden-free event hosted by the San Ramon Valley Education Foundation, offering a unique opportunity to support education while promoting fitness. In contrast, the Lunar New Year Festival, scheduled for February 18, is an entirely separate event from the Foundation's affairs, focusing on celebrating diverse cultural traditions rather than outdoor-living or home-and-garden activities.
