Water Competition

It’s important to stay hydrated during athletic events, so parent group leaders at the St. Edward-Epiphany School in Bon Air, Va., came up with a clever plan to make water stations fun for their 5K Eagle Challenge. For the “Don’t Drop, Stop” competition, parent-led crews at each of the three water stations decorated the stations around a particular theme, then dressed in costume to hand out water to the runners. Student runners could pause for a drink at each one, helping decide which station would win the Best Water Stop prize.
