Even though we cannot celebrate the day together we are excited to host our 7th annual Virtual 5K and we want to THANK YOU for your involvement and support!!
ABOUT THE PROCEEDS/DONATIONS:
The money raised from our past Annual Turkey Trots supported our Chromebook initiative. Our students and the teachers have used this technology to individualize instruction and enhance each student’s overall education across various subjects. This was vital when we went to all eLearning last March. In light of that and our continued use of eLearning, this year we added 4th and 5th grade to our Chromebook Initiative so funding from the 2020 Virtual Turkey Trot will support adding these students to the program. In addition, funding will help us provide necessary software, hardware and other programs in order to meet the demands of eLearning during these unprecedented times. We are so grateful to all of you for your support of St. Linus School through this event!
This will be the 3rd year that the Turkey Trot funds the Erica Heilmann scholarship. Fellow school families, parishioners, and beyond have been honored to have witnessed and been touched by Erica’s volunteerism and unwavering dedication to our children and St. Linus School and Parish as a whole. The run will be accompanied by an annual 7th grade essay on altruism and serving the community to which the most regarded essay will be rewarded a contribution toward tuition.
ABOUT THE SPONSORS:
We value our local vendors, small businesses, and corporate donors and individual sponsors. Your contributions help us build our community and financially support our children’s technology. We promise to commit ourselves toward building a working relationship with our sponsors, and offering them exposure to an audience of nearly 1,000 participants. THANK YOU!
IT’S A GREAT DAY TO BE A HAWK!!!
