Boosterthon Fun Run

The kids school recently had a Boosterthon Fun Run to raise money for the school.  It's their big fundraiser for the year.  Kids get pledges (per lap or flat donation) and then at the end of the week they run laps around a course on the playground area.   The goal is 35 laps.  Now these laps aren't laps around a huge football field or anything but for the kids they are a good size and 35 of them is definitely alot.  Elisabeth ran in the morning so it was nice and cool outside.  Ansley ran in the afternoon and it was hot!!   They both managed to run 36 laps and had fun with the whole thing.  The Boosterthon guys are crazy and fun and get the kids all excited. The school ended up raising $30,000 or so.  I was impressed!

And she's off!

The Kindergarteners getting all fired up to run some laps

The Vice Principal made a bet with the kids and he lost so he had to wear something crazy.  This is what he chose.  It was hilarious!  The kids thought it was sooo funny.  He's a good sport for sure.

The Vice Principal doing a split.....kind of.
