The Move-A-Thon is back at Bagley and is the PTA's first major fundraiser of the 2023-24 school year!
FUNDRAISING DATES: Sept 22 - Oct 20
MOVE-A-THON DATE: Friday, October 6
FUNDRAISING GOAL: $50,000 + $2,500 Corporate Matching
The Daniel Bagley Move-a-thon was on Friday, October 6th and is our first PTA fundraiser of the year and a fun event for our students. As a school, we are motivating our students to move more and we can do it for a good cause to support our school at this event. Students ran a cumulative total of 5,970 laps or 746.25 miles, far beyond our goal of at least 1,000 completed laps! We are on our way to our goal to raise $50,000!
During this fundraiser, students ask friends and family for donations - via either a flat or per lap donation - and then walk, skip, and jog around our track to raise much needed funds for our school. The Move-A-Thon event was held during school hours on Friday, 10/6, at Daniel Bagley and donations can be collected until 10/20.
This is one of the PTA’s major fundraisers and thanks to all the organizers and volunteers who helped make the event a huge success!!!!!
