KHS urges community to 'Get your glow on!'

The Seniors of Kimball High School (KHS) are putting together a Glow Run to raise money for the theater, and Friends of the Goodhand.

Part of KHS teacher Jeri Ferguson’s curriculum is having the kids be more involved with the community.

“They came up with the Glow Run to fundraise money for the movie theater to stay open,” said Ferguson.

She was thrilled that they came up with a way so that the whole community could enjoy a night as well.

A Glow Run is a 5K Run/Walk event that is a one of a kind experience held after dark that is less about how fast you run and more about the experience of getting your “glow” on and having a great time with your friends. Whether you are a casual walker or an avid runner, the Glow Run 5K invites you to come be part of the fun. It’s open to all ages and dogs are welcome too.

Each participant receives a t-shirt and glow stick but feel free to paint yourself up with neon glow paint.

Registration for the first annual Glow Run 5K starts at 7:30 on Saturday, Aug. 27 with the run taking off at 8 p.m. Awards will be for three age groups, 18 and over, 7th-12 grade and 1st thru 6th grade.
