The weather was gorgeous and Falcon pride in high gear on Sunday during the Â鶹ӰÒô Booster Club’s annual Falcon 5K and Fun Run/Walk in Washington Park.
It was the biggest turnout in the seven years of the event’s existence, with more than 500 taking part.
Members of Â鶹ӰÒô High School’s Junior ROTC opened the event with a presentation of the colors, and the Albanettes and Troubadours sang the national anthem. Superintendent Kaweeda Adams and Â鶹ӰÒô County Executive Dan McCoy sounded the air horns that started the 5K, and the race was on. .
The Â鶹ӰÒô High Jazz Ensemble provided great tunes for runners and bystanders throughout the event. Â鶹ӰÒô High cheerleaders were on hand to support the runners and walkers, and the Â鶹ӰÒô High Multicultural Club led a dance-off between the 5K and the Fun Run/Walk.
What a great day to be a Falcon!
