California Elementary School Holds Fundraising “Sugar Sprint” Day After Halloween

The students from Sumac Elementary School in Agoura Hills, California participated in a fundraiser for the school held on Thursday, November 1st. The “Sugar Spring” was a run held on the school’s soccer field. The fundraiser benefited the school library and salaries for instructor specialists in music, computers and physical education.

The event was called the “Sugar Sprint” because it took place the day after Halloween, when the children had been trick or treating and had been given a large number of sweet treats.

A warmup by phys ed teacher Kathi Stewart began the event. Each class ran for fifteen minutes to music. Music was provided by deejays Jeff and Jennifer Kantor of Gold Dust Entertainment. Funds were raised by family and friends sponsoring children per each lap run.
