…So You Think You Can Run?
Thursday, September 12th
5:00-7:00pm
Midas Creek
Elementary Fields
Parking: Get
your running shoes all warmed up by walking on over to the school. Parking will be tight, so we appreciate those
that can walk or carpool.
Entrance: The North side of the school will be the
only way in.
Running: Runners
will be divided into groups of 200 in the order of arrival. Parents are welcome
to run with their child if they would like, but that’s optional. Each student runner will be entered into a
drawing for that running heat, as well as receive a swag bag. Each heat will be only 15 minutes long. The first heat will begin at 5:15 and start
every 30 minutes following that. As soon
as you have raced, you are welcome to cheer on your friends, eat dinner, bid at
the auction, or head on home.
Fun!!: There
is lots of fun to be had! Munchkin Radio will DJ the event. Principal Giles, community leaders, and other
teachers will be running, or cheering on runners.

It’s pledge time for our “So You Think You Can Run?”
fundraiser. We are excited that 100% of
the money earned by the students will stay at Midas Creek Elementary. This year’s proceeds will help fund
Reflections, Book Fairs, Teacher Appreciation, Field Trips, Red Ribbon Week,
Birthdays, and a whole lot more! We
thank you for your support and hope your child enjoys participating in this
years “So You Think You Can Run?” fundraiser.
How to
begin:
The
attached envelope is your only pledge form you need. Have your child start getting pledges right
away! We are collecting a one-time
pledge. No need to collect twice! You will ask for a pledge for running as far
as you can for 15 minutes at our fun run.
Ask grandparents, aunts, uncles, friends, anyone! Collect their pledge in your envelope and
return your envelope by the due dates below.
If you can’t make it to the night of the fun run, that’s ok! Donations earned still help fund all the
great PTA programs at Midas Creek Elementary.
Pledge envelope due dates:
C track is due August 13-16th A,
B, D tracks are due September 6-12th
It is extremely important that the envelopes are returned to
the school by the due dates. That way
the money can be counted and class prizes can be awarded.
**Every
student who turns in an envelope (with pledges or not), will receive a reward!!**
**Every class that returns all their pledge envelopes by
September 12th will get an ice cream party. **
The teachers& staff will be cheering on the kids in their
donations with some silly dress up days as they strive to reach school wide
earning goals.
