Parent Info for Let's Grow 5K
Saturday, April 22 - 8:30 am
STEP 1:
Plan to join us for our first 5K Run / Walk benefitting Traders Point on Saturday, April 22!
Please bring your whole family and invite your friends and neighbors for a fun day you won't want to miss!
STEP 2: Reach out for Support and Help Traders Point GROW!
This event is designed to help our school GROW!
Students have been asked to reach out to extended family, friends and neighbors to ask for support for their participation in the 5K. This is similar to the pledge per distance model, but rather than pledging a certain amount per mile, a supporter can give a set amount for the student's participation in the 5K.
Students received their Donation Register envelopes (pictured here) and will use these to record and collect any cash/check donations. Envelopes will be collected at school on Friday, April 21st.
Donations can also be made online and dedicated to a particular student by visiting getmeregistered.com and choosing "Let's Grow 5K" from the list. (Direct your supporters to scroll down below the registration options to the donation option.)
Please encourage your students to be a part of helping our school GROW! Thank you!
