First, even though it was awards day, we ran! The club did our first “Tunnels” run of the year. This is one of our favorite routes. We get to run around the Boulders Mobile Home park and then up to the aqueduct, We cross the bridge at 60th and head over to the drainage tunnels. The kids sometimes seem apprehensive as the head into the darkness. So far, we have had LOTS of kids out there running – 40 or more! I am pleased to see a good number of the 6th and 7th grade girls consistently out there!
Our awards night is always a fun end to our season. We bring in pizza and soda. A parent provides pictures or videos of the kids in action. Every member gets a letter, pin and certificate for completing the season. We also choose a variety of awards:
