The Bobcat Bolt has been hosted by Ben Franklin PTO annually for several years. It's a great combination of fun, fitness and fundraising! Students love the challenge of running (or walking) laps to win exciting prizes and parents and teachers love that the money raised is used toward materials, resources and/or activities that directly benefit students.
Our 2023 Bobcat Bolt raised $16,140 and the 2022 Bobcat Bolt raised $17,090! This school year, students can earn a classroom pizza party, gift cards, personalized shirts, Admirals tickets and the opportunity to shave Mr. Devine's head.
Why are we raising money?
The 2024 Bobcat Bolt fundraising goal is $17,500 to experience out-of-school field trip opportunities. All kids learn in different ways and have unique needs. One of those unique ways is viewing the world around them outside of the classroom. Field trips offer a range of benefits that can enhance learning and personal development. Key reasons for taking field trips: hands-on learning, enhanced engagement, real-world connections, critical thinking, cultural exposure, social skills, memorable experiences and motivation/inspiration.
What happens if we reach our all-school goal?
Mr. Hein will get SLIMED!
