Save the date! March 21 is our Collins PTA Color Run! The Collins PTA Color Run is our PTA’s walkathon fundraiser. You received Collins PTA Color Run informational slides and a food preorder form with your student. Please check their folders/backpacks for this important information. For more information, visit our webpage at https://www.collinspta.org/fundraisers/color-run

You may have received an email this afternoon from 99Pledges / Collins PTA Color Run. This gives you your student’s personalized pledge page. You can share this with family and friends to help get pledges! 

* If you did not receive an email, we have not yet received your PTA Disclosure form - please return this ASAP to the Collins PTA box in the office. We need both the Waiver and Disclosure forms for participation in our event. You can download and print the forms from our website https://www.collinspta.org/fundraisers/color-run.

All students will participate during their class time for 30 minutes during the school day on March 21. To participate after school, students must be accompanied by their parent/guardian and have PTA Disclosure and Waiver forms submitted with a minimum of $40 in pledges.

In order to make this event a success, we will need many volunteers! Middle school or high school students seeking volunteer hours may also sign up for a shift or two. Cleared (TB, Fingerprinting) volunteers only during the school day from 8:30-3:05pm, but all are welcome before and after school! Please sign up online at https://tinyurl.com/ColorRunVolunteer2025.
