Walk-A-Thon

The girls' school held a Walk-A-Thon yesterday in attempts to raise money for the school. We're hoping this event proves to be a big enough success that we won't have to do any other fundraisers through the year. Time will tell as the pledges and monies will now start pouring in.

The 5th and 6th graders walked the same track, the lower field of our playground. With music playing loudly, and concession booths spread about the grounds, balloons, and parents misting the walkers with squirt bottles, it was a very festive event and a lot of fun was had by all. Hannah walked a total of ten laps, injuring her ankle on the last lap, thanks to a gopher hole. But despite the twisted ankle on the last lap around, she said she had a fun time and enjoyed walking with her friends. Gramma stopped by the school to show support for her girlies and when the event was done, she took them home with her and gave them cool showers and cold water and fresh clothes, while I had clean up work to do. THANKS MOM!!! I appreciated that SO MUCH!Thank You Papa and Gramma and Papa Steve for your pledges for our Walk-A-Thon!!!
