Relay Recess
This year we will be bringing our first Relay Recess to St. Joseph County. It will take place at Hoppin Elementary School on June 1st from 1:30 p.m. to 3:00 p.m. Relay Recess brings Relay for Life to elementary schools. It engages students in the fight against cancer through fundraising activities that support cancer programs and services in our community. The program increases knowledge of healthy behaviors that will help students stay well and involves them in fun, physical activities. In addition, it gives students the chance to get out of the classroom and have fun with entertainment and activities that reinforce what they have learned. If your elementary age child is not a student at Hoppin, you can still teach them about the three main components of Relay Recess: cancer education, fundraising & physical activity. The Relay Recess website, www.relayrecess.org, has activities & games for parents and teachers to download. Since this is our first year staging a Relay Recess event, we are using Hoppin as our "test" school. We hope to bring this exciting event to the other elementary schools in 2013.
