OGSD Slug Run 2012

by Thomas Cannon

The OGSD Slug Run 2012 is coming up! The slug run was originally developed in 2010 at Sakamoto school. The idea of a 5K family run spread to other OGSD schools. The slug run was created to help raise money for 6th graders to go to science camp, thus the name "Slug Run", after the Walden West banana slugs. This is the first year ever for the district wide slug run! All the schools contestants will meet at Sakamoto, and will receive a T-Shirt and a number. As they wait for the run to begin, they will be treated with music and other entertainment. When the race starts, the runners run for 3 miles until they reach Sakamoto again! Then they receive a goody bag with slug run merchandise! Then, the contestants end with a nice cool down and fresh water! The slug run happens May 12, 2012 at 8 o' clock! So get Psyched!
