FUND RAISING ACTIVITIES
Night of Praise - April 17, 2010
Each year we gather in a Night of Praise to thank God for his blessings on our school. This year we will celebrate with a hostess dinner, announce our Friend of Christian Education award, and hear Dr. Carl Zylstra, President of Dordt College. We will also take an offering for our new telephone/intercom system and honor the graduating classes of 1985, 1960, 1950, 1949. Call 564-3502 or 564-2727 or e-mail jmeyer@maritime-ins.com if you would like to attend.
Run-Jog-Walkathon – May 21, 2010
Since the 1980’s, our students have been running, jogging, and walking to their neighbors and friends to get pledges for our school. On the day of the event, our students, along with family and friends gather to go around the playground 20 times in a festive atmosphere.
Each year, there is a mascot chosen who inspires everyone to raise funds and earn prizes. We will announce that at our kick off in April. We look forward to another year of prizes, food, and fun! We will have a supper following the event serving around 4:30 p.m.
Unity Bike Ride and Spring Fry – May 22, 2010
This third annual event has seen participation from avid bikers all over the Midwest as well as our supporters. Registration forms and further information can be found on our Unity Bike Ride page. We will serve brats and hamburgers with a picnic menu from 11:00 a.m. – 3:00 p.m. as well.
