Bulldog Bolt Fun Run!

In the weeks leading up to the Bulldog Bolt Fun Run on October 7, Briarcliff students have been watching school-made inspirational and educational videos on how to get motivated and have a healthy lifestyle. View the videos here and see how Beauregard the Bulldog and his friend turn into Bolt and Lightening whenever they see trouble. Can they save the day?

VOLUNTEERS AND DONATIONS NEEDED!!!

The Bulldog Bolt Fun Run is Friday, October 7! Information was sent home with students on September 12. Click the star to the right to register your child's fundraising page.

We are looking for sponsors for the Fun Run. The bulk of sponsorship money will go toward the cost of t-shirts for each student and volunteer. It will also go toward supplies needed for the Fun Run to succeed. If you own a business and would like to sponsor the Fun Run, please contact Kari Moncrief. NEW THIS YEAR: FAMILY SPONSORS! If a Briarcliff family would like to sponsor the Fun Run, you can do so with a $100 Family Sponsorship. Your family name will be on the t-shirts, listed on this website, and you will be mentioned at the Pep Rally and on race day.
