Fountain Lake walk-a-thon to raise cash for Heifer | Community Spirit

From an email sent in to Today's THV:

Location: Hot Springs Arkansas at Fountain Lake School

Time/Date: Friday, April 27th 9:00-2:00

This is a 4th grade project that the students have been trying to accomplish since the beginning of the school year.  The 4th grade decided to make their goal an ark for the Heifer International Program.  We have been studying the Heifer program all school year and have done many different fundraisers and activities that have been student led or  teacher led to raise the money.  An ark is $5000, the highest goal to reach.  Not only is the 4th grade leading the pack for this fundraiser, but the preschool thru 3rd grade is now involved. 

Our final activity is this Friday, April 27.  It is a walk-a-thon for grades preschool thru the 4th grade.  There will be booths set up and different activities around the track while other classes are walking their donations that they have collected. 

We will be having a ceremony Friday at 2:00 to hand the money to a Heifer Representative with a check for what we have raised.

Thank you,
