2021 Fitness Fun Day

Mark your calendar for Fitness Fun Day on November 19, 2021!

PTSA is delighted to bring back this annual tradition, one of the signature events of the year. Fitness Fun Day is a school-wide event that promotes fitness and school spirit and raises funds for critical school programs. All students will participate in their PE and health classes, with a choice of running, soccer, dance, and basketball activities. The grade with the highest score at the end of the day wins. The event takes place outside, behind the school. Family members volunteer to run the activities. We will send a volunteer sign-up as the date gets closer, but in the meantime, if you have the flexibility to join us for a few hours in the morning or afternoon please plan to do so.

Please consider how much you might be able to donate to support Sligo.

If you have contributed to other schools’ auctions or events, please consider a similar level of support here.  If you are ready to donate, you don’t need to wait!  Please give now or plan to do so before November 19.  Donations to the PTSA are tax-deductible.  There are three ways to donate:

Please ask a business to sponsor Fitness Fun Day!

Fitness Fun Day is the biggest school fundraiser of the year. It brings in the majority of the budget that PTSA will have to support students and the school community. Business sponsorships are a critical element and we need your help. Please take a few minutes to ask a local business you regularly patronize to support the school. Or, perhaps you own or work for a business that could sponsor! Click here for material you can share directly with businesses that has all of the information. The deadline for business sponsorships is October 22 so please don’t delay. Donations from families are another vital part of the effort and PTSA will provide more information on that soon.
