  Walk-a-Thon Background

What is Walk-a thon?
Walk-a-thon or “WAT” is the major PTA sponsored fundraiser for the year. WAT is a fun-filled day to spend with your family and show support for Los Alamitos.

 Why do we need WAT?
Without the money raised at WAT, our students will not have the enrichment programs that make our school the special place it is. WAT supports our students at Los Alamitos in Science, Visual Arts, Technology, Music, Assemblies, field trips and many other.....PLEASE JOIN US!

 When is WAT?
Saturday, October 4, 2008
9:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m.

 Where is WAT held?
WAT is held right here on the Los Alamitos campus.

 What is there to do at WAT?
Walking, teacher dance, walking, music, walking, fun foods, walking, silent auction, walking, BBQ lunch, walking, dutch raffle, and more walking! Check out the scrapbook boards in the cafeteria to get a glimpse of what you can do and how this event supports our kids.

How can I help?
We would like all Los Alamitos Students to participate in WAT. Last year over 500 students participated. It’s easy, just follow these simple steps:

1.       Turn in the PTA waiver – located in today's White Envelope. Your child cannot participate without a signed waiver.

2.      Students can make a poster to decorate the fence area of our school.  More information to follow....

3.      Review the Rules Packet with your student (packets are distributed on Sept. 19th)

4.      Parents, please volunteer to work a shift on Oct. 4^th.  We need a lot of “monkeys in the jungle” to make this day a success.  No experience necessary. 

5.      Families can donate to the silent Auction and/or sponsor certain activities.

6.       Come to Walk-a-thon on October 4^th and have fun!!

Thank you for your continued support,
