We are hosting our 2nd Annual Fun Run to raise monies for school improvement projects that benefit all our students. Like last year, we are enlisting the help of Booster, who specializes in integrating fitness, leadership and character into a fun, school-wide, fundraising event, to bring the Fun Run to life!
The Kingfisher Fun Run is a 10-day program and our biggest fundraiser this school year . On Wednesday, February 26th, we will be asking all families to register on Booster and then begin sharing their personal link with family and friends who can support IC Imagine by pledging an amount for the number of laps a student runs or walks or simply making a one-time donation. This effort culminates with the Kingfisher Fun Run on Friday, March 21st! Lower School students will be running, while our older students will have opportunities to volunteer and cheer on our runners.
The success of this event comes from the expansive reach that families make through email, text and social media sharing! We have many fun and exciting classroom, grade level and school level incentives which should encourage all our families to register and share with others. Anyone, anywhere can support! Every student can participate in the fun run, with or without pledges.
