Partnering with Huck's Karing for Kids organization, the Jefferson Attendance Center hosted a 5K Color Run last Saturday. Two hundred seventy-nine adults and children participated by running or walking. Racers were sprayed with washable colored slime and powder along the route.
The event also marked the 25th anniversary of Mrs. Cindy Colman's Mileage Club at the school. Jefferson Attendance Center students in the club endeavor to accumulate the most miles they can throughout 2nd and 3rd grade.
Top winners of the Color Run were 12 year old Niah Haley of Carmi and 11 year old Kallen Sutton of Norris City.
Proceeds from the Color Run benefit students at Jefferson Attendance Center.
