Walk-A-Thon Pizza Lunch Winners

I had a wonderful Pizza Lunch with some of the top winners of our school WALK-A-THON!  JET’S Pizza kindly donated pizza and pop for the lunch.

As you can see from this photo, we ate and laughed and lingered over lunch together.  It was great for me–I ate lunch AND I got to spend time with seven incredible Georgetown kids!

Thank’s again to everyone who helped earn money for our school, and in particular for these seven top winners:

  • Reid Everts (PK – Boes)
  • Milena Sremba (K – Jabaay)
  • Mackenzye VanGeest (1st grade – Woodring)
  • Brandon Carr (2nd grade – Jurewicz)
  • Emma Everts (3rd grade – McDonald)
  • Victoria Mia Eggers (4th grade – Kooiker)

The Week Ahead: 9/28/09

Our week ahead opens with the Walk-a-thon…our main fundraiser for PTC for this school year.    Please make sure that your child dresses appropriately for this event.

  • If you have not sent your money in for this event, please do so as soon as possible.
  • Comfortable walking shoes are a MUST and it is critical that they dress warmly if the temperatures drop on Monday and Tuesday.
  • It would also be helpful to have a water bottle, marked with their name.  The children will be walking for approximately 45 minutes.

A copy of our week’s events (including special days) is posted below.  Here’s to our final days of September and our first days of October.
