right on track

The annual track and field day 

is always a fun chance to cheer our student body on.

This year the high school joined too.

Amy and Michael were both competitors,

Elise took photos and helped guide one of the elementary classes,

while Mark and I (thanks for the photo, J!) 

and others too (aren't they the cutest of spectators?)

watched from the sidelines, sporting team colors.

In union there is strength.

The 1K was an optional event for middle and high school combined.  Michael (in the lime green shirt) started out far behind the high school competitors.  But after a couple of laps, his steady pace passed them by, and (congratulations, Michael!) he finished first!

What a fun all-school event!  

A great start to the last quarter of school.

A great way for all ages to work together toward a common goal... 

...standing firm in one spirit, 

with one mind striving side by side

 for the faith of the gospel...
