6th Annual Orchard Fun Run

 

Mark your calendars - October 13th is the Sixth Annual Orchard Fun Run! Come join us for a energizing, and fun event!   

It is so moving to watch students cheer each other along the track and see their huge smiles as they cross the big balloon finish line. 

 

Friday, October 13th approximately 8:30am (early release day) each Orchard student will experience the excitement of a run, walk or ride on a marked course around Orchard Elementary. Each student will receive race day swag. Families are more than welcome to join and cheer on their student(s)! Make a sign of encouragement or bring your cow bell – the more noise the better as the kids make their way around the course.

 

Students will be asked to seek donation dollars of any amount for their participation. Last year, 100% of student raised donations went back to the school, making this our best fundraiser yet. Stay tuned for what the PTO has in store for next year’s Community event.

 

We need your help making this a successful fundraiser and event. 

 

  • Encourage and help your student collect donations. Any dollar amount is greatly appreciated. You can share this link with friends and family so that they can pay online easily. Please encourage family and friends to use our link through Konstella.

  • Would your business or employer sponsor the event? Our generous sponsors help all student raised funds go directly back to the school. Email Elizabeth and AJ Rogers below for more information.

 

 

Important details:

  • Students will return fundraising packets to classrooms with all donations. Checks can be made out to Orchard PTO subject line Fun Run or on the konstella link.
  • Race day Swag will be delivered to classrooms the week of the race and students will wear over their clothes on Friday morning.
  • Please check Konstella for communications. 

 

We are looking forward to making this another fun, memorable, healthy experience for our kids as well as a great fundraiser for the Orchard Elementary PTO. See you on the 13th!

 

Thank you, 

Orchard PTO & Elizabeth and AJ Rogers
