Description
This event was a part of the monthly family night for June. We had planned a relay race that would be divivded by ages but because of the low attendence, we had to re-plan at the last minute. We had a race that was about two blocks long and we had a total of 5 participants.
Best Features
The best part of the event was that we had parents cheering on the participants!
Creative Features
Re-planned at the last minute and made the change from relay race to a regular race.
Challenges
There were multiple activities planned right after dinner, so families got to choose. Most of them chose the activity that was less active.
Lessons Learned
In the future we need to have a schedule of events so that all events are well attended.
Future Plans
Well we plan to incorparate the PAK and JMI into our family wellness nights, senior luncheons, and other community events.
