Dear Parents,
Join us in supporting our 600 students strong, ready,
and willing to run in the annual
JOGATHON on
September 16th,
our first fundraiser of the school year.
Help your children to obtain sponsors who may pledge
by the lap or a set amount. Prizes awarded to
individuals and classes according to the money
raised.
There are two ways to obtain sponsors.
LOCAL
SPONSORS
Contact local friends and neighbors and record the
sponsors’ names, addresses and pledge amounts on the
large envelope provided. Collect the pledges after
the JOGATHON. (Local sponsors may choose to donate a
set amount prior to the run itself.)
MAIL
SPONSORS
On September 10, students in grades 5-8 will send
letters to out-of-town friends. All students need a
list of sponsors’ names, addresses and ZIP codes.
These letters explaining our JOGATHON will be mailed
from school.
PLEASE TAKE TIME THIS EVENING TO HELP YOUR CHILD
COMPILE A LIST OF NAMES AND ADDRESSES.
ALL
MONEY SHOULD BE TURNED INTO THE DEVELOPMENT OFFICE IN
A CLEARLY MARKED ENVELOPE WITH STUDENT NAME AND
CLASSROOM BY FRIDAY, OCTOBER 17.
Thank you for your enthusiastic participation in this
fundraiser. If you have any questions, please feel
free to call Debra at 329-3260 x
