The
fun run is a great health-oriented event that involves the whole school and
plays to our strengths! At the onset of the new school year, the kids run/jog/walk
around a 1/8 mile track as many times as they can in a 20 minute period. The
kids do not compete against each other, instead they set their personal goal
with their parents and challenge themselves.
Kids collect sponsors prior to this exciting day. Either through a flat donation
or per lap sponsorship, the kids work to raise money for PTC school programs
and then they run the fun run. At each lap, parent volunteers mark off a lap.
Results are tabulated and sent home with the kids.
You can
help your child collect sponsors
from family and friends, set personal goals and encourage and support them
in their choice of clothing and food on fun run day!
