Run For FUNds!!!
Thank you to the nearly 500 Lincoln students who worked hard to complete Lincoln's 6th annual Run for Funds! We were lucky to have a beautiful fall day with lots of smiles and fun memories.
Let's extend big giant thank you to Mr. O'Deay and Mr. Fry for leading the students through the RUN and thanks to Mr. Otto for all his help with the setup. The day would not be possible without the 30 parent volunteers who kept the kids organized, hydrated, and safe. And finally, a special thank you to the Chall family for the Gatorade donation and the Shorney family for once again arranging for water donation from Culligan Water to keep the students hydrated through the 20-minute run.
Pledge envelopes are due on Wednesday, October 3rd to be eligible for a drawing for 1 of 10 Red Mango gift cards. There are Target gift cards for individual fundraising, a pizza party for the top fundraising grade in the school and a pie in the face for Mr. Mitchem if the school meets the fundraising goal of $19,000. Envelopes will be accepted through Wednesday, October 10th when the winning grade for the pizza party will be announced. Online donations can be made at: https://www.schoolpay.com/link/run2018
If you have questions or need another pledge envelope, please contact Judi O'Connell at judioconnell22@gmail.com. Thank you for all your support!
