Bunker Elementary School Fall Festival and Walk-A-Thon

Come one, come all and enjoy a fall festival with a family-friendly atmosphere at Bunker Elementary
School's annual Walk-A-Thon this
Friday, October 11 from 1:15 PM to 4:30 PM.  Entrance is free; a DJ and our raffle committee will preside.

Raffle tickets will be sold for $1 each until 4:15 PM.  Over 100 donated prizes will be raffled off during the entire event.  Prizes include a $150 gift card from Fremont Bank, tickets to Oakland and San Francisco Zoos, Happy Hallow, and many
other amusement parks, restaurant gift certificates, jewelry, and our 4:30 PM final prizes, his and
her youth bicycles.

Go to the Ticket Sales booth to buy 4
for $1 food and games tickets and/or $10 wrist bands which give unlimited games and 1
face painting for each person wearing one.  Our 13 game
booths include our face-
and nail-painting, temporary tattoos and glitter Bunker "spa," basketball hot shot, ring toss,
soccer kick, fishing for prizes and so much more!  5 tickets for face-painting, 4 tickets for Arts and Crafts Booth and 3 tickets for all other games stations.

Food includes 6 food/game tickets for a hot dog, 2 food/game tickets for a bottle of
water or fruit roll-ups and everything else (popcorn, nachos, snow cones etc.) are only 4 tickets each!

Cheer on our Bunker students who will be walking laps to music to raise pledge money.  All money goes to the Bunker Elementary School Parent-Teacher Club, a non-profit organization whose sole purpose is to support Bunker student learning through teacher mini-grants,
capital improvements on campus and celebrations of student achievement.  This event is Bunker Elementary School's biggest fund raiser of the year
and a chance for Bunker to connect with the community.  

Feeling lucky?  Buy some raffle tickets.  Feeling hungry? Buy some food and games tickets.  Feeling like our schools need support? Talk to
someone at the volunteer check-in table.  We might even be able to use your help on the day of the
event and in future events.  Over 200 volunteers make this event and events like it happen.  Come join us!
