Fun Fitness Fundraiser
3rd Annual Fun Fitness
Fundraiser!
As part of
our ongoing commitment to promote healthy choices for our students, the
PTA is once again sponsoring the Fun Fitness Fundraiser to promote
physical activity. The children choose the physical activity
they enjoy most
and earn pledged money for the time spent
performing that activity. We’re happy to say this approach not only
supports positive competition among the students but also helps
emphasize the important role exercise plays in a healthy, active
lifestyle.
It is our belief that when parents
know the goals of a school fundraiser, they will be more supportive and
generous. You can be assured that all monies collected from our only
fundraiser of the year will be spent on supporting the children.
Since there are no products sold, we keep all the profit!
Our goal
for money raised this year is to upgrade classroom area electronics in
addition to our usual funding of class field trips, school assemblies,
and family activities.
We are sponsoring this year’s Fun
Fitness program on Friday, October 3rd, 2008
(rain date Thursday, 10/9).
This event allows the children to participate in their favorite activity
while earning money and having fun! Children will be able to choose one
of three fitness units; Bike Riding, Walking/Running, or an Obstacle
Course.
Each student is encouraged to complete
as many laps as possible during the half hour event. Students will
collect pledges beforehand on a sponsor sheet. A flat donation in lieu
of pledges is also acceptable. It’s our desire to have everyone
participate; however, those who choose not to be involved will attend an
alternative class.
About 75 volunteers* are needed to
ensure the program’s success. Won’t you help? Please complete the
volunteer form attached to let us know what the most suitable time to
volunteer is for you. We really appreciate your assistance. If you’re
available to help out days or evenings, for any amount of time, please
let me know. You may contact us at
pespta@hotmail.com to sign up or if you need more information.
We are very excited about this year’s
fundraiser and we hope you’ll want to be involved. Together, we can make
this the most successful fundraiser ever!
Thank you in advance for your support
and generosity!
