Nighthawks PTSO - Fundraisers

2011 Spirit Walk - September 26-30
-> Print Spirit Walk Sponsor Form

Dear FFHS Family:

The PTSO will sponsor the popular Spirit Walk during Homecoming Week, September 26-30. Spirit Walk will let us all see how easy and fun it is to add 20-30 minutes of moderate activity to the day. Spirit Walk also is a way for you to give back to your school community by supporting the PTSO and its programs. Spirit Walk is the PTSO’s main fundraiser for the year.

The best part of Spirit Walk is that you can earn Spirit Points for your class AND a chance for prizes, like an electric guitar, a surfboard and gift certificates to local businesses.

During Homecoming week, each second period class will walk to the football field and around the track for 20 minutes between 9:00 and 10:30am. We ask that each student support the PTSO by securing at least one $5 sponsor for the walk. You can also sign up adult sponsors to walk the track with us.

Each class (Freshman, Sophomore, Junior and Senior) will compete to secure the most sponsorships. Spirit points will be awarded to each class, with the most going to the class with the highest percentage of students who secure at least one sponsorship. An additional Spirit point will be awarded to the class that has the highest number of adults walking. Spirit Points will be announced at the Powder Puff Football game on September 30.

Individual students will also be eligible for a prize drawing, with more chances to win given to the students who secure the most $5 sponsorships. One chance for 1 sponsorship, 6 chances for 5 sponsorships and 15 chances for 10 or more sponsorships.

HERE IS HOW YOU CAN HELP MAKE SPIRIT WALK A SUCCESS:

The PTSO NEEDS YOU to help make this event a success! If every student secures just one sponsor, we will raise over $4000 to support PTSO programs like the Homecoming Tailgate Party, coffee house, prom, mini grants for teachers, teacher appreciation events and cultural arts programs. If Spirit Walk is successful, we all benefit.

˚ Use the attached Sponsorship Form to sign up sponsors – you can sponsor yourself if you want.
˚ Add the names of any parents, family, friends or neighbors who will walk with us and the day they plan to walk. A schedule for the walk is posted at www.nighthawksptso.com.
˚ Turn in money and forms every day of Homecoming week, before school in the Rotunda.
˚ WALK!!!

Our PTSO hold many fundraisers throughout the year - please let the following members know if you need assistance with applying your VIC or MVP cards online.  Registering your grocery store cards help fund our schools.  Thank you!

Food Lion Fundraiser for FFHS

This is the easiest fundraiser we will ever do: Just go online to www.foodlion.com  and register your MVP card number with FFHS. Every time you shop Food Lion will give 1% of your purchase price to the school. It costs you nothing at all, and you still get the MVP prices. Just remember to use the MVP card whether or not you have any MVP items. If we can get a few hundred parents doing this just imagine what we can earn.

Please pass this on to anyone you know who might be willing to take a few minutes to sign up ( it is very quick). If they don't want to support FFHS there are other area schools on the list.

For those (like me) who want more guidance, here are the detailed steps:

* go to www.foodlion.com  on the left hand side click on "Food Lion Shop and Share"

* Click "Register MVP Cards" (the small numbers before and after the UPC bars are part of the number)

* Select the organization you want (after choosing town of Kill Devil Hills you can click on FFHS)

* Click "finished" or add another number if you can!

All you need is your name, address, phone, email and MVP #
Thanks for participating in our "painless" fundraiser!
