2012-2013 Boosterthon Character Resources

NEW Character Music Videos

Each year, Boosterthon produces character videos, FREE for every student to watch on funrun.com, but this school year marks our first-ever character music videos! The Highway USA Character Countdown highlights each Choice Challenge with an upbeat music video that champions a good choice.

With a lot of inappropriate music on the radio, we’re proud to offer music the whole family can listen to that is fun and promotes a character-filled life.

Our students will love it!

Students will be “on the road to good CHOICES!”

Highway USA Children’s Books!

Since 2010, Boosterthon has donated 65,000 books to schools across America. This year, the Boosterthon team will again give each class a copy of our very own children’s book that brings the character theme to life, highlighting the Highway USA Choice Challenges, and encouraging students to read.

But for the first time ever, we’re offering two versions of our classic book. Our K-2 classrooms will receive a 32-page illustrated book and grades 3 and up will enjoy a 177-page chapter book.

Boosterthon’s Children’s Literature Expert, Robert Walker, wrote the books to engage and challenge students on their level—colorful illustrations with a fun adventure narrative for our younger students, and a fast-paced, gripping mystery for our older students.

Regardless of age, students will discover that the books are far more than entertaining—building character is at the heart of the story.

Book Summary: Twins Luke and Lacy Crossing don’t make good choices. Even with the news that their school flag is stolen on the last day of school, they choose to focus on their lazy summer plans. But everything changes when the school’s secret underground task force commissions the twins to crisscross America and follow the clues of a mastermind history thief.

Learn why schools are going crazy for our NEW Chapter Book.

If your family would like to enjoy their own copy at home, purchase the Boosterthon books for just $8.99 each on Amazon.com.

Highway USA Media Pack

We want our rewards to reflect our values of fitness, leadership, and character, so when students reach the $5 per lap prize level, they’ll receive the Highway USA Media Pack. This resource includes all of our character music videos (with bonus features), our radio-ready music album, and a Highway USA wall poster!

Offering a resource that teaches character is unprecedented in the fundraising industry, and we are so excited for our students to bring character home and enjoy Highway USA until the Boosterthon returns for another great year.
