Tailgate Party for Exercise Awareness

PTO leaders at Durbin Creek Elementary in Saint Johns, Fla., kicked off the year with a huge tailgate party. The football-theme event featured the high school’s drum line and an appearance by two cheerleaders from the Jacksonville Jaguars NFL team. The school’s principal used the event to encourage students to “tackle a good book” and to reinforce the importance of exercising each day. More than 600 students and families attended the party and participated in football-throwing challenges, Zumba dance, obstacle course races, and more.
