GPS Walkathon Fundraiser
Welcome to the first annual Glasser preschool walkathon! Please join us on Sunday, October 14th as we kick off our fundraising year, socialize, and get our kids moving!
What: Children and parents will circle a one block course bordered by Berkshire, Marion, Greenfield and Belleforte. Parents, grandparents, and friends pledge $ for each lap completed, or make a flat donation. We hope you'll join us for a picnic lunch (everyone brings their own food) before the event. Lemonade and light snacks provided after laps are completed!
When: Check-in at the Berkshire entrance begins at 12:45. The walka-thon starts at 1:15. The bring-your-own picnic lunch begins at 12:00.
How: This is a great way for grandparents, aunts & uncles, and friends to get involved with the school by making a pledge and/or by walking alongside! Keep in mind that the children will likely only complete 1-3 laps, so make pledges accordingly. Flat donations are welcomed! Please fill out the pledge form and return it, along with donations, at the event or before October 22, 2012.
Why: This is a great way to get our kids active, while making new friends and supporting our preschool.
If you are unable to attend the walk-a-thon, you can still participate in one of two ways! First, by making a tax-deductible $50 donation to Glasser Preschool. Second, by making a pledge for every lap completed by Miss Marci! We look forward to seeing everyone there!
