Get-Up-and-Go Update!

Dear Grainwood Families,

The Get-Up-and-Go walk-a-thon is a few days away and I want to thank you for supporting your child and Grainwood in this healthy fundraising effort.  In preparation for Friday, please make sure your son or daughter is dressed appropriately for the weather.  I would suggest he/she bring a rain coat and old shoes for walking.  Barring any severe weather or steady/pouring rain, Friday is our day!  If this is not possible, Monday is our rain date and communication will be sent home ASAP about the change.

All students at Grainwood are receiving shoe laces for the event (Thank you Grainwood PTC!).  You may see them come home in your child's shoes as early as today.  Please help make sure your child wears them for the walk-a-thon and the laces are theirs to keep.  Even the principal is sporting his throughout the week!  Keep those pledges coming!  While today was the targeted due date, your child can turn in their envelope through the remainder of the year.  We will be tracking the total pledges with feet in main hallway.  Come check out how we're doing!
