Color Run Fun!





Look what fun Cora and Violet had our school's first Color-A-Thon fundraiser!

It was a fun thing to look forward to as we returned to school from Spring Break. On Thursday, the students headed over to the park , where they ran laps past various stations where parent volunteers threw colored corn starch powder at them.

By the end, the children were a colorful sight to behold, and our school was about $15,000 better than it was before. Thanks to all who donated!


After the primary kids completed the run, it was time for the upper graders. I kept Violet with us - Aunt Patty and Stace were helping, as well - and she helped Elaine run a color station. She had so much fun!

At the end of the run, the children gathered in the center of the course and tossed up color packets they'd earned through donations. (Just in case they weren't colorful enough already!)

The event was so much fun; we're already excited for next year!
