RHS Moveathon starts in ONE WEEK!

Hello Parents and Caregivers,
 
In case you missed it, the RHS Move-a-thon starts NEXT WEEK!! That means you have only 7 days to get your kid's Walkstarter account set up and ready to raise money to “Be Really Cool! Move and Groove!!!”
 

This Move-a-thon is about getting our kids to get their bodies moving, celebrating all different ways we can be active and healthy together. Similar to the walk-a-thon, students will get pledges from donors (family, friends, neighbors, etc.) related to how many "laps" they do, but what's different is that students will have many different opportunities for activities to try, AND they will get to do those activities at school throughout the week! 

This week of fun will be May 9-14th, with daily challenges at school Monday through Friday. We will cap off the week with a Saturday day of walking (akin to the walk-a-thon) and celebration with families on Saturday, May 14th.

To get started: 

  • With your child, create their page and avatar through Walkstarter (https://rhs.walkstarter.org). Click on My Walkstarter to get started! See details here. 

  • Collect donations. See this document for tips and tricks!

  • Get ready to get moving on Monday, May 9th! 

  • Sign up to help out on Saturday, May 14th. We need all parents involved to make the Saturday community event a success.

  • Questions? Check out this FAQs document. 

This event is an opportunity for all kids to be involved and for us to celebrate the end of the year with a focus on health and fun with friends. We can't do it without you!!!
