The Fun Run is Coming!
It’s that time again, time for the annual McDole Fun Run! Our students will be running at school on Friday, September 21st, but the time to start collecting donations is now!   

What is the Fun Run?
The McDole Fun Run is an outdoor run-a-thon designed just for kids! Laced with music, a cheering squad, and prizes, this event is a fun way to get our students moving and raise money for our school all at the same time! Funds raised supply grade level books, support student activities and subsidize classroom technology—every student, and teacher, benefits!

What Do I Do?
Are you travelling this weekend or spending time with friends and family? Spread the word about the Fun Run! Donation envelopes will go home on Tuesday, September 4th, so start thinking of who you will ask to support you and your school as you run for funds!

What if people want to give me donations now?
If people are ready to donate now, then let them! You are welcome to begin collecting cash or checks (made payable to McDole PTO) right now.  Official donation forms and instructions are not available until Tuesday, but that doesn’t mean you have to wait.  Online donations will also be accepted starting on Tuesday. (Instructions will be included at that time).

Get excited!
It’s time to gear up and get excited! We know in the past few weeks you have paid school fees, signed up for Fun Lunch and been asked to buy Spirit Wear for your students.  It gets to be a lot for everyone.  However, the funds we raise will fund our PTO for the entire school year, so this is important. That’s why we ask you to reach out to others.  Can you get five $10 donations from your neighbors, friends and family? That’s all it takes to make this our biggest Fun Run ever!

Got questions?

Have any questions? Please e-mail the Fun Run Coordinator, Stephanie Beattie, at beattiestephanie@gmail.com.
