Clermont Elementary’s Fall Fundraiser, the Boosterthon Fun Run is back! Registration is open NOW! Go to: mybooster.com to sign up TODAY! If we reach 50% registration by Friday, September 16th, Ms. Salata and Ms. Younger will sing karaoke for the students.
This event kicks off with the arrival of the Booster Team on campus on 9/15. This year's theme is Grand Land Adventure. Throughout the days leading up to the Fun Run students will engage in spirit events and character building lessons with the Booster Team! This culminates in the HIGH ENERGY Fun Run which will be held on Friday, September 23rd. Students will run up to 30 laps to build fitness and raise money for Clermont. Funds raised will be used to benefit all students at Clermont Elementary, including to help convert the central courtyard at Clermont Elementary into a usable space for outdoor learning! Students may obtain sponsors or donations and then redeem these pledges by running laps on the day of the Fun Run. Every student can participate and receive a free shirt whether they have received donations or not. If your family feels it’s not in the position to financially support the school, that’s ok. Families can actually support our school by also SHARING about our fundraiser with friends and family online.
We can't run this event without help from parent volunteers! Please sign up here: https://www.signupgenius.com/go/4090B4AAAAF2CA0F85-clermont1 to help on the day of the event!
This year's event will look more like 2019 with two track races and students divided between upper and lower grades. Parents are invited to come, dance, and cheer on their children at this very fun event! Parents must check in at the front office first.
If you have any further questions, please contact: Meagan Tiedemann (vpfundraising@clermontpta.org).
