UPCOMING EVENTS
Lappin’ with the Lions
“Lappin’ with the Lions” is Friday, October 22 (Thursday, October 21 for 4K Students). Lappin' with the Lions is one of our biggest fundraisers for the year! Each student will run or walk laps outside. Students will have 20 minutes to complete as many laps as they can.
All funds raised will go to the general PTA fund in order to support the numerous items and events that enrich our students’ experience at SWG. All students will run or walk on the day regardless of whether they choose to collect pledges.
Look for your child(ren) to bring a packet with information and pledge sheets home this week! Pledges will be collected after the event
We need your help making this event a success! Please sign up to volunteer HERE. No running experience necessary! Volunteers may help punch holes in student bibs to keep track of laps ran or tabulate results.
