The Burley Walkathon and Fitness Challenge is an event organized by Friends of Burley and a chance for the students to participate in Raising it Up for their school. Students/Parents create a personal page they can send to friends and family asking for support for their participation in the event. Every student that creates and shares a personal page will be entered into a raffle to win some great prizes and three classes will win a special experience at Wrigley Field for being the classroom with the highest percentage of students who create and personalize a fundraising page! Create your personal page and share it with friends and family for a chance to win!

Burley In-School Walkathon (K - 5th Grades)
1000 Watts Sports will be on site at Burley School on Friday May 20th to create a fun fitness challenge event for all primary grade students! Each class will have a special hour in the morning to participate in challenges and activities that blend teamwork, physical activity and competition into an exciting fundraising event for Burley School. Students and teachers alike look forward to this event, so we are thrilled to be able to bring it back to Burley! 
 
Walk to the Lake (6th - 8th Grades)
Returning to the Walkathon and Fitness Challenge this year will be the annual student-favorite Walk to the Lake! Always an exciting reward for a job well done, each middle school grade that hits key fundraising and participation milestones will get the opportunity to leave school and embark on a fun, active and adventurous walk from Burley to Lake Michigan along with friends, teachers and parent volunteers.  Please click here if you’re interested in volunteering to chaperone this event.

Walkathon Community Challenge (All Students and Families)
Download the map for the 2022 Burley Walkathon and Fitness Challenge. The stops are arranged in no specific order. On Saturday May 21st each of these small local businesses will have a sign in their window with the fitness challenge for that stop. The Community Walkathon is a great opportunity to get outside and get active with other Burley students and families and make stops at some of the businesses in our community that have been great Burley supporters throughout the year.  Complete the fitness challenge for at least five of the stops and you have completed the challenge!  Check out the participating businesses and givebacks here.
