WOW! TERRIFIC MINI-RELAY: Eldorado Elementary School pupils joined in the fight against cancer by raising money and walking the bike path May 10.
The pupils held a "Mini-Relay," which is an abbreviated version of the American Cancer Society's national signature activity, "Relay For Life."
Pupils and staff donated and walked the bike path during the physical education class times.
"It's a great opportunity for the students to make an impact in the community as well as become knowledgeable about cancer. The students feel good about themselves, knowing they are doing something to help others. We have a great group of caring kids," said Leigh Lane, physical education teacher and the "Mini-Relay" coordinator.
The "Mini-Relay" was an all day affair. The event raised $533.30, which will be donated to the Saline-Gallatin County Relay For Life in the name of the school.
"Relay For Life" will take place on June 18-19 at the Eldorado Sports Complex.
