school community project

My principal wants me to organize a school based fundraiser project. Ideally, i'd like something that involves physical activity for the kindergarteners and i had wondered if any of you had set one up. I know that St. Jude's does Trike-a-thon but we already do math-a-thon and they want to spread the wealth. I also know that the AHA has a jump rope a- thon and a basket ball activity, but those won't work either - the first grade does jump ropes and we don't have any basketball hoops. Any ideas?

When I was involved with JDRF a few years ago, I did a fundraiser in our middle school.

It was really easy, I did little work and I think we made 300 or so.

All I did was print out little stickers with the JDRF symbol and it said something, like

I support JDRF or something like that.

for a dollar the teachers could dress down or the kids could wear hats for a day.

I was that parent/not the nurse back then. JDRF supplied posters.

I'm sure the JDRF website would have other ideas.
