Walk-A-Thon and Fitness Challenge
Friday, May 10

Picture

Get Ready! Get Set!

The 2013 Burley Walk-A-Thon and Fitness Challenge goal is to allow students the opportunity to give back to the school that has given them so much. It is a fun and fit activity for PreK through Eighth Graders, with all children reaching for their personal best to earn "Fitness Points".  


Friends of Burley hopes to earn $30,000 to fund Burley programs, such as music and technology, and maintain staff positions in the face of daunting CPS Budget cuts and the implementation of the new per-student budgeting model.
 
EVERY STUDENT who brings in a least one pledge and will receive a prize.

All students who collect at least $50.00 will be entered in a RAFFLE to win an iPad Mini - with each additional $25 earning an additional entry.

The classroom that collects the largest amount in pledges in the school will win a CLIMBING WALL PARTY at Lakeview Athletic Club, an ENTRYWAY BRICK celebrating class and teacher, and THE ANNUAL WALK-A-THON TROPHY to display in the classroom for a year.

LOGISTICS

  • Grades PreK - 5th will meet their Fitness Challenge in the New Burley Community Park
