Dear Families,
This fall the D.P.S Running Club will be open to students in grades 3-5.   Running Club will start on Friday, September 21st and will be held on Tuesdays & Fridays  weather permitting.  Students should arrive for Running Club between 8:00am and 8:10am. The bus bay door will close promptly at 8:10 so that we can begin our training.  Do not drop your child off without ensuring the facilitator is present. Please ensure that your student comes prepared with water, a healthy snack and has an extra pair of socks and sneakers to change into following their running especially on wet days.   Please visit our D.P.S Running Club website at http://dpsrunningclub.blogspot.com/  for additional information, updates and local 5k information.   Additionally, we have set up a text messaging system that we strongly encourage you to use (see directions attached) so that we can send reminders, updates and important information if needed. It is a new messaging group this year, so please follow the directions to sign up for the group!
If your student plans on participating please fill out the attached permission slip and return it by September 20th.  I must have a completed permission slip in order for them to participate. If you have any questions, don’t hesitate to email me at appelbaumal@egcsd.org.
With smiles,
Ms. Appelbaum
