Stroll for a Goal

On Friday, October 12th we had our first annual Stroll for a Goal fundraiser for Sibley School. This year we tried a different approach to fundraising. Instead of selling products to people,
we asked people to pledge their support for our students to walk 3 miles around our school neighborhood. 
We will use the money we raised for our class field trips, visiting authors, assemblies, gifted and talented program, murals, patrol flags, jackets and camps, room parties, Prairie Fire Play, scholarships, science fair,
sharing tree, family breakfasts, fall picnic, family movie nights, 5th grade recognition, C’Motion, Critters & Company, yearbook expenses, historical museum, and many other special projects and miscellaneous school materials.

We had a banana and water stop halfway through our walk.  Students were able to relax at the park with their friends while enjoying their snack.
If students raised $50 or more they were entered in a drawing to dunk Mr. Williams or to throw a pie in a teacher's face.  They LOVED this!
 Mrs. Jensen and Mrs. Sorensen were such good sports!
It was a great day for a fabulous fundraiser.  We can't wait for our 2nd annual Stroll for a Goal!
