Dalmatian Derby

Our 2nd Annual Dalmatian Derby was lots of fun and the weather held out after postponing it one day because of the rain.  Pledge prizes ($1, $3, $5 and $7) have been awarded to all Patrick Pups that have secured pledges and each student has received at least a Patrick Elementary School wristband and a Derby shirt for participating and for trying to raise money for our school.  Students have been turning in collected donations and to date, we have received just over $9,000 in donations.

Below are all of the flyers that have been sent home with our students about the Derby.  Today a reminder flyer will be going home to highlight some important dates regarding turning in collected donations.  For those students that are anticipating receiving the Grand Prizes, it is important that all of their money be turned in by tomorrow, Wednesday, October 14 before 9am.  This will qualify you for the gift cards and the limo ride with Ms. Ackerman to breakfast, which is Thursday, October 15th.  The next important date is this Friday, October 16th by 9am.  All collected donations must be turned in by this date to qualify to receive the $10-$50/lap prizes.  All of these prizes can be viewed on the below poster.

The final deadline is Friday, October 23rd.  This is the date that will determine the 10% that your child’s teacher will receive as a direct result of money raised in her classroom.  The Dalmatian Derby is our main fundraiser that supports our programs and activities for the rest of the year, but this 10% will be used in your child’s classroom to directly impact their learning environment and/or learning materials.

Below are the flyers that have been sent home since the Derby started back on September 28th.  A poster of all prizes also appears.

This fundraiser has been fun for all and is turning out to be once again a fun, physically active and successful non-product fundraiser because of the support that we annually receive from the parents of our Patrick students.  Thank you again for your support and we appreciate your donations.
