10/29/16–Hickerson Hustle

Hickerson Elementary is having a 5k on October 29 at 8am. Our deadline to order shirts is
Tuesday, October 18. Here’s a short summary of our event.

The funds raised from the Hickerson Hustle 5k will be split 50/50 between
Hickerson Elementary and Compass Ministries. Hickerson will use the funds
to upgrade our basketball court outside. Compass Ministries will utilize
the funds to assist Rutledge Falls Church in continuation of the backpack
program that sends food home over the weekend with many of our students.

The registration fee for elementary age students is only $10 and for middle
school to adult is $25. This fee includes a t-shirt and you may even be
showered with candy has you cross the finish line! Runners will start at
Hickerson Elementary and run to Rutledge Falls church and come back to the
school. First place winners in each age group will receive an award. You
can even run in your Halloween costume!

A 5k is a great incentive to get our students and community excited about
being physically active! It’s also a fun way to raise funds for our school
and community.
