Student Council Fundraiser to Help Northern Michigan Families

Post by Adam Richards »

Cheer 'em on! Help 'em out! Kick, serve, swish!

On Friday, December 10th, the BICS Student Council is holding a fundraiser to support Northern Family Intervention Services. It's a volleyball-soccer-basketball-a-thon where students will be winning donations per serve, per goal, and per free throw. The Student Council will also, of course, accept flat donations for those who simply want to support the cause and not have the nail-biting fear over how many serves, goals, and shots they'll make:) 100% of the proceeds go to NFIS.

The a-thon will run from 3:30 p.m. to approximately 6:30 p.m. on Friday, December 10. There will also be baked goods for sale at the same time with 50% of the proceeds going to Northern Family Intervention Services and 50% going to Student Council. Come on in and buy some treats and maybe stick around for a bit to cheer the students on. Masks will, of course, be required, but thankfully your cheerful cheers will still be audible!

Students have been making calls over the last week and will continue to do so for the next several days. They are not running through the whole phonebook, though, so if you would like a call, please let me know at adamr@beaverisland.k12.mi.us or 231-492-2458, and I will get someone on it right away. If you are looking for some other way to support the event, you can also drop off a plate of goodies to sell.
Thank you for your time, and we hope to see you next Friday!

Sincerely, BICS Student Council

Our Superb Beaver Island Community!

PLEASE stop by the school to peruse the utterly delectable sweet treats available for purchase this afternoon.

The BICS Student Council must postpone the sport-a-thon portion of its fundraiser today. Sadly. It's going to happen ASAP, but will likely be in early January.

BUT! We have 85 zillion BAKED GOODS. Please stop by the school this afternoon from 3:30 to 5:30.

Proceeds to benefit Northern Family Intervention Services and Student Council -- 50/50. The sport-a-thon proceeds will be 100% for NFIS.
