>Rockville Central friend Kari Keaton sent this along:

For the third year, the Beall PTA will be sponsoring a recess running club for 3rd, 4th and 5th graders at Beall Elementary. The initial goal of the running club is to help the kids train for the DARCARS Young Run, which will be held this year on Sunday, October 19. The emphasis of the club is on having fun while participating in a healthy activity.

Running club will begin on Wednesday, September 17 and be held Monday, Wednesday and Friday until October 20. After the DARCARS Young Run, Running club will be held every Friday until the end of the school year. It will be held from Noon – 1:30 pm. Volunteers are needed to help check in the runners, mark the laps that they run, make sure the runners have water to drink, and check out the runners. It can be very hectic when 40 kids arrive all at once and are eager to get started with their run. It is also hectic at the end because we need to get them back to class in a timely manner.

If you are interested in helping with running club, please contact Kari Keaton. You can work as much or as little as you want. Even if you can only work a half an hour, you can be very helpful, especially if that half hour is during the busiest time which is usually 3rd grade recess (noon – 12:30 pm).

Thanks Kari!

If the PTA’s or administrations of other schools in Our Fair City need volunteers or have important announcements to make, please send them along to Rockville Central and we can help get the word out.
