For the past several years, I have been in charge of the Wolf Run Kick-off at Cai Lynn and Jared's school. Each week, for 25 weeks, the students run a mile. The Wolf Run is the last mile of a school wide marathon. It's the only fundraiser for the PE program and it is supposed to fund the next school year. So MY job is to get the kids all pumped up and ready to get those pledges for the run.
Well, I certainly couldn't do it by myself, so every year I recruit the UNR track team and the last couple of years I have brought along the UNR mascot Wolfie. (It works out GREAT because we are the SWE Wolves!)
I ran over during my lunch so I was still in my scrubs (an extended lunch hr) and met the team and Wolfie to give them the run-down of the assembly. Add 600 kids and their teachers and GO! (Actually about 500.... the 6th graders were on their 6th grade camping trip)
I made my announcements and introduced the Track team and of course in came Wolfie! (the kids went NUTS!)
Now it's THEIR turn! They led the kids through some stretches and exercises.
And so did he.
They split them up down the middle to do the "Wolf Run" cheer.
As they left the auditorium to go back to class, they got to high five Wolfie and the girls. (Two girls at each set of doors.)
I think I know her!
He was so cute!!!!!
Picture time!
What a great time!!!! Thanks for all the help everyone!!!!!! (Now back to work!)
