What is Walk-a-Thon?
Tam Valley’s annual Walk-A-Thon combines school fundraising with an awesome event where kids walk, and sometimes run, laps around the school. The kids are encouraged to walk as many laps as they can, all levels of participation are welcome! Typically, about 80% of our TV community attends this event, making the Walk-A-Thon a great opportunity for families to get to know each other and our Tam Valley community. We will also have food (courtesy of Joe’s Taco Lounge), shaved ice (courtesy of Kona Ice), and once again, DJ Devin (from Entourage Events) keeping the vibes high! Read on to learn all about the event and please contact tamvalleywat@gmail.com with any questions or if you’d like to volunteer.
Is Walk-a-thon a fundraiser?
YES! The Walk-A-Thon is one of our biggest annual fundraisers. The event is free for everyone and raises money through the event sponsorships and concessions. One hundred percent of the money raised goes to the Tam Valley PTA and right back into our school to fund educational resources such as garden and assemblies, as well as additional programming for our Tam Tigers!
Did you know that Tam Valley PTA has budgeted funds to ensure that all programming such as yearbooks, family event tickets, adult-only event tickets, food and beverages at family events, book sales, outdoor ed, etc. is accessible to all of the families in our school community?
We understand that finances should never stand in the way of building a diverse, equitable, and inclusive community at Tam Valley. Financial assistance is readily available because we truly value the participation of every parent/guardian at our community events. PTA has reserved resources available. To learn more about obtaining support, please reach out to Principal Lisa Lamar (llamar@mvschools.org).
Thank you to our 2025 Sponsors, The Junction, Pizzahacker, and Brick Club.
