some great prizes that could be yours for the taking including a
firetruck ride for the winner and 6 friends (what a great birthday
party!), a night at a local Courtyard Marriott which includes
breakfast for 2, a family outing to Chuck-E-Cheese, a certificate for
a session at Farmington Gymnastics ($170 value!) and much more!
The 1.2 Fun Run/Walk will be led by our own Mr.
Morawski and Mr. Vercellino — in front of Power Middle School, and
will finish on Power Track!
*If your child is registered, he or she will receive a free event day
t-shirt, goodie bag and medal for finishing the fun run/walk.
(Registrations done last spring are on file and are valid.) If your
child is not yet registered, you can either download a registration
form on www.gillpta.com (click on MMM logo, then go to “registration
form”) or register on the 20th. MMM t-shirts for those not yet
registered will be given out on a first come, first serve basis.
PLEASE NOTE: IT’S NOT TOO LATE TO TURN IN PLEDGES OR MAKE DIRECT
DONATIONS FOR OUR MUSTANG MINI-MARATHON FALL FUNDRAISER!
It’s not too late to collect and turn in those pledges! In fact,
we’re going to give you until September 20th to do it and still get
credit for prizes! If you haven’t completed your miles, that’s O.K.
We trust that you will do it…and you will still be welcome to
participate on September 20th and get your medal, goodie bag, and
t-shirt as long as you’re registered. Please remember to turn in your
pledges! THIS IS OUR FALL FUNDRAISER and we don’t want to have to do
another fundraiser this school year if we can help it! Remember, the
money we raise goes directly to benefit our children at Gill through
enrichment programs, field trip transportation, special assemblies,
classroom supplies, etc. AND the best part? Your pledge, direct
donation, or entry into our silent auction are all
100% tax deductible.
THANK YOU!
On Monday, April 21, 2008 at 10:00am Mr. Morawski is planning to lead by example in his own 26.2 mile trek. This won’t be the first time the kids at Gill school have cheered their principal toward a marathon finish, but it will be the first time the’ll be rooting for him to complete 26.2 in 
Mr. Vondrasek will be announcing Mr. Morawski’s splits on the loud speaker for the kids so they can cheer him toward the finish line and celebrate his progress. On that same day, we’ll officially announce to the students that we’re going to follow Mr. Morawski’s accomplished footsteps by running, walking or wheeling our way toward completing 26.2 miles in our own marathon event: the 1st Annual Gill Mustang Mini-Marthon!
