• The Sisters High School
Vocal Music Department
would like to thank Susan
Cobb for her generous dona-
tion this year of another gor-

The quilt, titled Rhythm
and Hues, was awarded to
a very lucky recipient at the
recent high school and mid-

Funds raised — well beyond
the quilt’s value — will ben-
efit the many students in our
program.
• Circle of Friends

Lamont sent home paper-
work to all the families before
the program began explain-
ing it and its goals. Exercise
has many benefits including:
controlling weight, combat-
ing health conditions and
diseases, improving mood,
boosting energy, promoting
better sleep — and fun. If
students develop a positive
relationship with exercise at
a young age the passion can
grow with them.
Approximately 200 stu-
dents participate at some level
in Run Across America every
year with about 20-30 mak-
ing the full marathon — five
cards plus four punches on
the sixth card.
“Many of the outstanding

on our track or cross-coun-
try teams at the middle and
high school, and many more
probably will in the future,”
said Lamont. “Sometimes
students who struggle aca-
demically achieve great suc-
cesses during Run Across
America — that’s my favorite
part.”
Buller, together with four
friends, challenged each other
to run during each recess. He
had a goal of 50 miles over
the three-week program and
he achieved it. Both Emmitt
Buller and second-grader
Daniel Miller each ran over
60 miles.
“I feel proud of myself
that I reached my goal,” said
Buller. “ I got strong, I got
fast and I got confident.”
