Dear Parents and Students:
During our lives different disease of the heart have increased. Many private clubs, civic organizations, and social groups have stressed the need for every person to become more physically fit. Again this year, the American Heart Association is sponsoring "Hoops for Heart: which is a basketball skills activity. The students at Gilbert Elementary School will be participating in this program in Physical Education classes during the week of March 8-11. We are asking each person to collect donations for this worthy cause - "To Help Cure Heart Disease." Our school goal is to collect $1000.
Go visit parents, grandparents, family, and friends to ask them to support you with a contribution. DO NOT COLLECT DOOR-TO-DOOR! Ask you sponsors to make their checks payable to American Heart Association. We will be collecting donations starting today and ending on Friday, March 19th. Please bring your donations to school in an envelope marked with "American Heart Association", student's name, teacher's name, and give them to Coach Neal or Mrs. Trapp.
Keep on HOOPING it up,
Coach Neal
Mrs. Trapp
