Teachers'
Incentives
You
can help your school by participating in the Diamond Shamrock Go!Kids
Challenge™ yourself. Not only will you serve as a terrific role
model for your students, the elementary school in each district to have
the highest percentage of teachers to walk and complete the Diamond Shamrock Go!Kids Challenge will win GYM-I-NEE playground equipment, courtesy of www.WeMakePEFun.com.
(School districts with fewer than 10 elementary schools will compete
against each other.) The GYM-I-NEE is the perfect game for excitement,
exercise and fun.
In order to participate,

to track your progress. When you complete the Diamond Shamrock Go!Kids
Challenge,™ turn in your form to your PE contact, and they will
submit it to the Sports Foundation by December 15th.
Key
Dates
There are some key
dates for you to be aware of during this year’s Diamond Shamrock Go!Kids Challenge™.
It is important
that the Sports Foundation has good estimates of the numbers of children
participating in this year’s Diamond Shamrock Go!Kids Challenge to help us gauge
how many medals and t-shirts we’ll need to provide at the conclusion
of the program.
On October
29, we’ve asked all P.E. contacts to provide an estimate
of the number of children participating in the Diamond Shamrock Go!Kids Challenge from
each school. Please be sure you report those numbers to your P.E. coordinator.
We will ask for another head count on November 19.
The Subway Victory Lap Celebration is December 5. Children
who complete the program but cannot attend the Victory Lap Celebration
will receive their medals at school during the week of December
6.
