Jog-A-Thon

Here are some more pictures of the Jog-a-Thon. I did not take these. You can tell because they are so great! Thanks Karen.

Family Club Meeting

Reminder...This coming Tuesday, October 28th is the West Park Family Club Meeting at 6pm in the multipurpose room at school. We hope that you all can come and join us! The more the better.

Great Job Eaglets

The Jog-a-Thon was a huge success. All of the kids, teachers and even some of the parents did a great job jogging for a WHOLE hour. We have to give a great big West Park thank yout to Kristin Birdsall and Margaret Pratt for all of their efforts in getthing the event organized. They did an awesome job!

I took lots of pictures to put on the blog, unfortunately, I somehow lost my camera at the end of the jog-a-thon (not smart, I know). If anyone found a camera, would you please turn it into the office? I would love to have it so I can post lots of pictures of all of the wonderful runners and volunteers. If anyone has pictures of the Jog-a-Thon that they would like to email me to put on the blog, I would love to post them. Please send them to lmhiserman@hotmail.com.

We will be sure to keep everyone posted on how much money was raised. And remember, you can keep raising money until the money is due.

Thanks again for everyone's hard work!

Thanks Applebee's

We want to give a big shout out to Applebee's for letting us have a Dine and Donate event at their restaurant. Thanks also to the many generous West Park families, we were able to raise $366.61! Great job West Park community.

Mrs. Herdell and the Family Club will make sure that the money is put to good use for our school. Hope everyone will be able to join us for the next Dine and Donate. We will keep you posted when that will be!

The Countdown is On!

There is less than one week left until the Jog-a-Thon. It is this Friday morning. Keep getting those pledges and help make lots of money for our school. Also, don't forget that you can get your Jog-a-Thon t-shirt after school on Wednesday if your parents fill our your form that you have $25 in pledges. We would love it if you would bring in your pledge sheets on Thursday. Money will be due later.

We are still looking for volunteers for the day of the event to help set up at 8am and also during the Jog-a-Thon. (please contact Kristin Birdsall at kbirdsall@birdsallandassociates.com if you're interested in volunteering).

And remember kids...get lots of rest this week, eat healthy food, wear your Jog-a-Thon t-shirts on Friday, bring your water bottles and stretch your muscles so you're ready to run, run, run!
