Jim Ned Track elementary style!

Typical May day in our little Jim Ned Valley... Typical 1st grade boys when a camera is in view!
The stands were filled to capacity on this gorgeous spring day!
All the colors of the rainbow were represented, not so much for artistic style as to keep track of which child was in which of the 6 grades present on the High School football field.
Athletes whose records still stand stood watching their own children run the routes they'd run not so long ago. One of these was even a State Champion in the longest run of all!
This day, there was not a child who was not a champion and the ribbons told the tale!
First, Second, Third and Fourth......... probably every participant got awarded! Winners one and all!
I don't think there was ever more enthusiasm than I saw today... parents, grandparent, aunts, uncles and even the family dogs were in attendance! It only reminds me that this little place we call home is truly touched by God........family and friends are huge priorities!

..... and at the end of the day.................. we all left ready for a nap!!!! some started early

..."and a good time was had by all!"
