It's Walk-a-thon Week!
brought to you by your reporter on the beat
There was excitement in the air this week as kids headed to the big playground at lunchtime recess for walk-a-thon. Parent volunteers gave one punch for every lap walked.

Some reactions from the participants:
"This is cool!" -3rd grader
"I've volunteered for four years and this is really fun!"
-Juliet Berger, mother of 3rd grader Audrey
"One more lap and I'll have done a mile!" -4th grader
"This is fun!" -Cathy Weinert, mother of 2nd grader Olivia
"We've drawn two raffle winners each day and it is nice to see the excitement on their faces,"
-Amy Rotche and Alicia Frenette, Walk-a-thon committee

Join us on Saturday October 10th for our Saturday Walk-a-thon where the whole family is invited to walk together around the school between noon and 4pm. Refreshments are provided!

At Bach the PTO does not raise funds with sales of magazines, chocolate bars, gift wrap, etc.
We encourage you to promote fitness and sponsor your child for the walk-a-thon, our biggest fundraiser of the year. Consider helping them ask Grandparents, Aunts, Uncles, and friends to sponsor them too.

See you Saturday!
