Raleigh Park 2022 Jog-A-Thon

 March 14th - 18th, 2022

Our 2022 goal is to raise $25,000! Every penny earned by the kids stays right here at Raleigh Park to support our PTO programs.

Pledges due Friday, March 18, 2022

 

What is a Jog-A-Thon?

Raleigh Park’s JOGATHON is BACK! Students will walk, run, or jog the track during a scheduled PE class the week of March 14-18, 2022. 

How is this different from past JOGATHONs?

As students complete laps, they will scan a QR code using technology stations. All students will get 30 minutes to move. Masks will be optional. All fundraising will be done through PledgeStar, a secure, web-based fundraising system.

How is this the same as past JOGATHONs?

Students will focus on goal setting, doing their best and having fun while doing healthy, fun, heart-pumping exercise! Students are encouraged to collect donations from friends, family and neighbors. Funds raised will support Raleigh Park’s wonderful programs and activities that our Tigers count on each year. 

What types of payment are accepted?

Credit card, paypal or check payments are accepted through Pledgestar. Any cash or check donations may be submitted to the front office. Please enclose cash or check donations in a sealed envelope with your child's name, grade and teacher written on the front of the envelope. Thank you!
