Boosterthon Fun Run 2008: Dream BIG

Rocky Ridge Elementary had only one fundraiser for this fall, the Boosterthon Fun Run. The fundraiser focuses on fitness, education and character. Each day for a week the children learned about **D**iligence, **R**esponsibility, **E**nthusiasm, **A**ppreciation, and **M**aking a Difference while also focusing on fitness as they ran laps. **All of the students** at school on October 8, 2008 participated in the Fun Run. They ran 1057 total miles run by the students grades K-5. Students received pledges from their friends and family for each lap they ran. Each lap had a special theme and music and the students were encouraged as they ran from their parents and teachers. Each RRE family received a DVD video of pictures and music thanking the parents for their participation. Look closely and you will probably see your child!
