Practice for September
8th will be at Heritage
Park,
We will push our
lap-a-thon out a couple
of weeks, More details
will be posted here on
our website and in our
email newsletter.
The Lap-a-thon is our
primary fund raising
event. This fund raiser
helps us keep our price
low, allows us to offer
scholarships, and assist
our athletes in national
competition.
We ask every family to
seek pledges either by a
flat rate or per lap
donation, The athletes
run for 1 hour, later
they return to their
donors to collect their
pledges (if based on a
per lap donation). and
turn in the funds by the
dead line.
We award a grand prize
of Disneyland/California
Adventure Park Hopper
tickets to the athlete
who raises the most
funds. Every athlete
who raises $40.00 will
also win a lap-a-thon
prize.
The dead line to be
eligible for the grand
prize is October 7th.
Athletes who raise
$40.00 or more will
still be eligible to win
a lap-a-thon prize even
if they turn in the
funds after October 7th.
Song Requests: We
are taking requests. If
you have a song you want
to hear during the
lap-a-thon, please let
me an email so I can
make sure I have it, *
