The Fourth Annual Jog-A-Thon began Thursday at Northstar Elementary. Students ran laps over a distance of an eighth of a mile to earn funds for the Knoxville PTO.
PTO volunteer Dave Garcia says he likes this event over others because the kids feel more involved with it. The funds raised from the event go towards field trips, assemblies, playground equipment, and other items.
The Lil Big Red Radio was on hand for the event and will there when the Jog-A-Thon concludes Tuesday at West Elementary. You can find out more about the Jog-A-Thon on Let’s Talk Knoxville.
