Get EXCITED For Walk-A-Thon! Important Updates + Int'l Walk & Roll Day Tomorrow, Also!
Tue, Oct 1 7:07pm
Greetings, Monte Gardens Community!
 
We are super excited about our BIG Walk-A-Thon event tomorrow (!!!) and International Walk & Roll To School Day tomorrow!!!
 
Due to weather conditions and potential extreme heat, we are ensuring the health and safety of our students by shortening each ending time for grade-level Walk-A-Thon timeframes; the duration will end just five minutes earlier to accommodate getting our students out of the heat sooner. Please see the attached Walk-A-Thon flyer for scheduled times.
 
We look forward to a continued great time and to your continued support of our Mountain Lion Fund (donations for Walk-A-Thon can be made here)! Here is pledge form link as well. Your students are excited at the chance to win an ice cream sundae party for the class that donates the most between now and October 15th! 
 
Please also see attached flyer for our Walk & Roll moment happening tomorrow near flagpole from 7:45am to 8:10am. Bring your students to come check out our Wheel Kids swag booth and grab some stickers (limited while supplies last)!
 
See you tomorrow! (Walk-A-Thon schedule below!)

Walk-A-Thon

We are so excited for our Walk-A-Thon Wednesday, October 2nd! 


This is an incredible opportunity to support our Mountain Lion Fund by donating and pledging event laps for your child. Every $25 your child collects, they will be entered into a drawing to win one of our awesome prizes! Donations and pledges due back to your child’s teacher by Tuesday, October 15th.


Reminders! For The Walk-A-Thon, make sure you…

  • Apply sunscreen for your child before school.
  • Bring a labeled hat.
  • Bring an extra water bottle labeled with their name and classroom number. 
    Please have your child wear their class color shirt that day. See below for class color and their Walk-A-Thon time slots.
  • Families may enter at “Gail’s Gate” at your student(s) run time to cheer them on! Bubbles are encouraged! ;-)
