Relay for Life 2010

Several teachers and staff from RES rallied together at the Whitesville Road track on Friday night for RELAY FOR LIFE 2010. The Second grade teachers spent a long (but fun!) Friday night/ morning at Relay for Life. We raised money for the American Cancer Society and helped to promote cancer awareness. It was a BLAST...Can't wait to do it again next year! :) Thank you Mrs. Athon for leading our Relay team this year! Mrs. Keck took these awesome pictures and we wanted to share...
