The RMES Home & School Team is hosting a bike-a-thon / walk-a-thon fundraiser for Ruth Murdoch Elementary School on Sunday, October 20, 2024. 90% of the proceeds will go towards much needed capital improvements such as the carpet upgrade project and 10% will be used for future Home & School events. We pray this year’s fundraiser will exceed the $11,000 raised last year. Some students at RMES may not know many people in our community and will be looking for sponsors. If you are willing to sponsor one or more students, or if you would like to commit to a general donation for this event, please text “BIKE” to 269-281-2345 by Wednesday, October 16, 2024. Thank you!
