Caminata
Caminata de Colores is the PTO's biggest fundraiser of the year! It is a school-wide color walk that begins at Ada Vista, weaves throughout downtown Ada. Upon returning to Ada Vista, 4th graders are honored and covered with colorful powers (think Color Run) as their rite of passage.
The PTO provides students and teachers colorful t-shirts and encourages everyone to dress festively and colorfully! Students will wear the following colors based on grade or position:
Kinder - Blue
1st Grade - Green
2nd Grade - Yellow
3rd Grade - Orange
4th Grade - White
Staff - Cyber Pink
Parents are invited and encouraged to join their children on the walk. We encourage parents to wear Cyber Blue Caminata shirts, which can be purchased at the Green Husky store.
Come wearing smiles, ready for fun, walking, music and snacks! Hope to see you there!
Where: Ada Vista
When: October 4, 2024
Time: 12:30 - 3:00 PM
Family Signs
How is Caminata the PTO's biggest fundraiser?
Along the Ada Vista property, the PTO places signs created by parents, caregivers, and friends that show support and love for the Ada Vista students. After the walk, students get to take the signs home!
After placing a donation, the donor will receive a link that will allow you to create a sign. You will have the option to create a sign with an image or with the Caminata logo.
Donations and sign submissions are due 09/16/24.
The PTO aims to reduce the number of donation asks, which is why we suggest the one-time donation of $120 per child attending Ada Vista. Of course, we appreciate any donation your family is able to give. To receive a sign order link, there is a donation minimum of $3.
Silent Auction
Online silent auction to raise money for the AV PTO. Wanting MSU or GR Rise tickets? Chance to be principal for the day? Or desire the coveted parking spaces?
Here's your chance to bid on a collection of items all in the name of good fun and AV support.
