Thanks so much for responding. Sounds like you had a very successful fun run/walk. If you want to email me the form you used that would be great. My email is This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it.. Thanks again!
We did one and what a great time!
We sent out pledge forms and had each child bring them in. We are a K-5 school so we coordinated it with the gym teachers during gym time during the day. Parents weren't bothered by this or had to take time from them. We did K-2 at one time. We worked around our school with banners and flags and sang, skipped and had a blast. Then we switched to 3-5 and they had to walk around the school. They each took about an hour. After the walk, we served them lemonade and the teachers came out to get them and take them back to class or lunch. We made about 6500.00 and it was no effort at all. I sent out a survey about what families wanted this year for fundraising and that was #1! This year we will push this as our one and only fundraiser. Most parents don't bother getting pledges, they just have all family members give 10-20 bucks and the parent use this as the one time flat donation of 100.00. Our goal is 20k!! This would do it for us. I may have sponsor forms we used if you want to send me an email. I will sent you what I have. Ours is going to be in Oct.
and we are hoping to get business to pitch in money. We are going corporate. Can't wait.
Parents are done with catalogs, candles and flags they all wanted this.
