Boosterthon is Coming!
Parents and families—this year’s main fundraiser is the Orchard Park Fun Run! It’s a two-week program that kicks off with a pep rally on Wednesday, October 2. Families will then gather pledges for every lap your student runs (30-35 laps) at the Orchard Park Fun Run, which will happen on Friday, October 11. This year our goal is to raise $38,000 for STEAM Dreams, and we need your help! We’ve asked the experts at booster to power our fundraiser to make it easier, more profitable, and more fun.
Students will also experience an amazing character theme, Mindspark: Wild West! Booster’s most exciting theme yet combines S.T.E.A.M. skills (science, technology, engineering, arts, and math) with character-building. While they're teaming up with the Mindspark Kids to save Dr. Shock, our students will learn five character traits that will help strengthen themselves and our world.
Donations will go toward STEAM Dreams and the entire two-week experience. So please help our school by getting pledges from family and friends and entering them on funrun.com. Also, all families are invited to come out and cheer on our students at the Orchard Park Fun Run. Thanks so much for your support!
