Walkerfest!

Walkerfest is Saturday, November 15th from 11am-2pm and we still need 8-10 volunteers – please scroll to the second page of the form to see the available spots.

We can use help running some of the carnival games–this is easier than you think! It’s as simple as handing out rings for a ring toss and giving students Walkerbucks when they win. Imagine the smiling faces you’ll get to see when you run those games! Please consider volunteering your time or donating to make this a success. If you already signed up – thank you! We’d love it if you could send a text to someone you know to get them on board too.

Walkerfest is free to attend – we have a suggested donation of $25 for those that are able to donate to offset the cost of the event. In addition, raffle ticket sales are the way we fundraise during Walkerfest. Every dollar earned goes to the PEP OneFund and is equitably distributed to ensure that students across the district have amazing experiences at their schools.

New this year! Walkerfest will have cotton candy, a photo booth, a dance party–and more!
