Run the Gauntlet Fundraiser

For the past week Brooke has been working on a little project. It started off as a fun media project on the MAC to send a little something to her grandparents to ask for a fundraising donation for her school. When I saw the clips I knew we had to share her very funny sense of humor. Brooke's elementary school is having a Fun Run fundraiser this year and since it's a brand new fundraiser for the school we are trying to get as much excitement, enthusiasm, and funds flowing as possible. It is a Renaissance theme and we are calling it the Run the Gauntlet Fun Run. I have been part of the planning committee for this project so I have a huge personal investment in it's success too.


Our school goal for this fundraiser is to earn $40,000 by having the kids spend a fun day outside walking, running and/or jogging around a 1/4 mile track at the school. The students are all asking for donations from family, friends and neighbors to help them reach their personal goals. If you are interested in donating money to this great fundraiser you can email me and I can send you the link to make an online donation or you can send the donation directly to me and I will make sure it gets to the school. (If you do mail something, give me the heads up to let me know it's coming.) No donation is too large or small...$5 we'll take it....$500 we'll take that too.

Take a look at the little video she made to promote her fundraising effort. If it puts a smile on your face, consider donating a little something to help this super fun and wonderful cause.

And don't worry, when the video is over if you walk around singing-

Run - the Gauntlet - Run Run - the Gauntlet...

It's kind of a side effect of participating in the fundraiser...hey it's better than a twitch!
