Happy Labor Day MES Families!

The start of September has gotten off on a hot and smokey start! I hope everyone has still been able to enjoy the long weekend. As you may know, we have our annual Husky Pup Fun Run fundraiser coming up at the end of this month, and it's time to start fundraising. Please help us support Mammoth Elementary by setting up a student fundraiser. Every student who raises any amount will be automatically entered into a prize raffle, and for every $100 raised, your student will receive another entry into the raffle. The top fundraisers will receive prizes such as a youth bike from Footloose, Apple Air Pods, and more. Also, the team that raises the most will receive $250 to go towards a team party or project, decided by the teachers. 

It is easy to set up your student fundraising page! 
1: Go to MammothPTO.org/FunRun and scroll to the bottom of the page to click on your student's team (grade level OR MILES program- MILES has their own team that is not grade specific)
2: You will land on the event page at MightyCause.com - Click 'Join Team' on your student's team page
3: Add your student's name, picture, and short description
4: Hover on the left side of the screen to set the 'duration' for the fun run to end on October 7th
5: Hover on the left side of the screen and click the rocket ship icon to publish
Share your fundraiser with all of your family and friends, and share it on social media as well!

With your support, we are able to fund school programs such as STEM, Ski/Snowboard PE, and Music, as well as provide school supplies to our teachers, purchase new playground equiment and more! 

Let's get our Husky Pup Groove On!
