Flight For Eagles This Friday - Please Help!

Hi Elmhurst Families:

Here's an update about Friday's Flight for Eagles Jog-A-Thon. We are in need of lots of volunteers for this fun event. If you can stay after drop-off, you can help set up. Otherwise, students will begin warm-ups at 8:30, and I'll need all volunteers in place.

Supplies needed:
6 coolers to hold Popsicles
4 sticks to be used as limbo sticks (can be brooms without brushes, yardsticks, etc.)
Spray water bottles filled with water to cool the joggers (volunteers can bring them from home on the day of the jog-a-thon - just let me know so we have enough)

 

We will run the jog-a-thon from 8:30 - 10:30 am. Please let me know if you can come help. I will put your name on a big poster so you'll know where to go when you arrive. Just meet down on the upper grades basketball courts at about 8:15!

 

If you are available, please email elmhurstpta@gmail.com. Of course, the more help we have, the more fun the kids have. So bring your cameras and your school spirit!

 

Thanks,

Shelley Haynes

Elmhurst PTA
