2014 Jog-A-Thon Overview
The 4th annual Old Town Academy Jog-A-Thon will take place this Friday, October 24th from 8:45 a.m. to 12:00 p.m.
Ideally, each student should run about 25+ laps at the suggested pledge donation of $1.00 or more per lap — however, the sponsor is welcome to pledge any amount s/he chooses, or can make a flat donation. This is a fun one-day event that encourages all students of Old Town Academy to take an active role in FUNdraising for their School.
