It's Boosterthon Time!!
The Boosterthon Fun Run experience combines a fun fitness event, an interactive character program, and a highly profitable school fundraiser. It’s all wrapped up in an unforgettable experience that is fun for students and hassle-free for schools.
With the Boosterthon Fun Run, there is nothing to sell and no door-to-door. Students help Sarah Smith Elementary simply by gathering pledges from friends and family. Sponsors can pledge a per-lap amount or flat donation toward that student’s Boosterthon Fun Run. The lap average for all students on the day of the Fun Run is 25-35. So if a family friend pledges a dollar per lap, that would be a tax deductible gift to the school of $25-$35. This was the opening kickoff to the Boosterthon. The Boosterthon Fun Run team led this exciting assembly-style meeting in the school gym. The team explained that the Boosterthon Fun Run will be happening next week and how every student will run and every student will get a free t-shirt. The team also talked about how students will learn character lessons over the next eight days while also getting pledges to help their school. Students left school today with an informational PledgePack and their own personal access code to funrun.com.
