First Roll-A-Thon

On June 1st and 2nd, 80 children from the preschool, pre-kindergarten, interim-kindergarten, kindergarten, and elementary classes rode for a cause at our first annual roll-a-thon!  The children raised over $2000 in pledges to help local child cancer patients from the Norris Cotton Cancer Center in Lebanon, NH.  A raffle, bake sale, and lemonade stand also raised funds for this amazing cause.  The kids had a blast riding around our own circle and were so proud of the number of laps they did!  Almost all of the children rode over a half mile (7.14 laps) with most riding between a mile (14.27 laps) to almost four miles!  Their smiles and laughter were a testament to a successful couple of days and the knowledge that they were riding “to help sick kids get better.”
