For those of you who
have not heard of Project Graduation, it is an after graduation all
night party held at the school to give our kids one last night together
as a class but to do so in a safe but fun environment. There are
all-night games, activities, door prize drawings, meals, etc. Many high
schools across the state of Texas hold these for their graduating
seniors, and it is the parents' responsibility to plan and raise money
for this endeavor. Recent Project Graduations cost in the range of
$8,000 to $10,000 which included door prizes, food, and cash donations.
The Project Graduation 5K was a way for the Senior parents and Seniors to raise monies to go toward Project Graduation on May 30th. Plus if you signed up with a group of at least 10, you could get a discount of $2 per person. And all that signed up by the 5th of March received a cool t-shirt by Melanie; the owner of Spear-It Headquarters!
Rob's parents came, our best friends and their children joined our family this morning for the 5K, bright and early at 8am! We had an amazing time and got some exercise too! Thanks for supporting our Senior!!!
