Your Guide to the Pyrtle 2020 Virtual Walk-A-Thon!

WHAT: This is your go-to guide for the upcoming Virtual Walk-A-Thon, Pyrtle PTO’s biggest annual fundraiser. It needs to look different this year, but we’re no less excited about what is in store for the Pyrtle Community! Families love Walk-A-Thon because it’s a great way to support our school through donations, and you don’t have to sell anything! The money raised is used to support your students and their teachers through purchases of materials and services. Read on to learn how you can participate.

There are just TWO goals of the 2020 Virtual Walk-A-Thon:

• 1) Raise money to support Pyrtle.
• 2) Get quality time as a family by walking/running together.

We encourage every Pyrtle family to set a donation goal and a mileage goal. You don’t need to share either of these with anyone outside your family. 

WHO: The entire Pyrtle Community gets to participate in the 2020 Virtual Walk-A-Thon, students, families, teachers, and staff. You are encouraged to get out and walk or run with your family regularly during the 25 days of the Walk-A-Thon. This is not a competition between classroom or grades. We are #BetterTogether!

WHEN: Walk-A-Thon will run Sept. 1-25. You get to choose how often and how far you walk during that time.

WHERE: Your family gets to choose where you want to walk! If you walk to and from school, that mileage counts too!
