Today was the Brennan Color Run and I volunteered again. This is a fun event and it was much better organized than last year. I worked with the husband o the PTO president. He was a pretty nice guy. We started with the fifth and sixth grades. We had a ton of color and went through the whole box.
When the seventh grade came out I got a shot with Andy. The kids had some events to do prior to actually running. They had an obstacle course as well as a dunk tank and more. they were also doing pies to the face of some teachers, an incentive they got for donations.
After Andy ran around several times. One time through they gathered a ton of color in their shirt and then blasted me with it at the same time that I blasted them back. We were covered in the stuff. I left before the end of school so that I could shower and let Andy walk home so that they could get some of the color off on the walk and also not get a ton of color in my car. At the end of the event Andy was selected to pie one of the teachers. Andy told us about it at dinner and let us know that they completely whiffed when they tried to pie the teacher. So another pie was made so Andy could chase the teacher and actually pie them.
The school raised $25,000 so that is great.
