The last phase of planning, organizing and managing a Walk-A-Thon or any peer to peer fundraiser is the wrap up. Don't skip this very useful step. This is your chance to learn and improve for your next event. Seek out feedback from sponsors, volunteers, participants, donors, or anyone else who was involved. Ask important questions. Did you achieve your goals? What things if any went wrong or didn't work as expected. What things were great that people liked? What lessons have you learned and how can you improve next year? If you are not planning on holding this event again next year, maybe you can pass it off to someone else to organize next year?

The last important thing you should do after your event is over is to say, "Thank You". A little acknowledgement goes a long way and helps set the tone for next year. Take the time to write a quick note or email to your volunteers, sponsors, participants, and donors. Volunteers should ideally receive a personalized thank you.
