Andrea Giegerich and Kyle Arduser approach the start/finish line as they collect a bracelet from PTO volunteer Jessica Hansen. Each student received one bracelet after each lap. The students averaged 10-12 laps at the end of the hour. The bracelets were donated by PTO. Water and cheese sticks were donated by Culligan and the Jones County Dairy Producers.
