LET ME RUN SPRING 2024 5K

So proud of our GFES Let Me Run boys who completed their Spring 5k on Saturday, May 4th. Despite the pouring rain, the kids (and parents!) showed up and ran with excitement. The boys concluded the season with a celebration and medal ceremony, and a fan favorite - dodgeball. Thank you to Anna Caputo, head coach, as well as Patrick Kelly & Bob Morean, assistant coaches, for a wonderful season. Fall of 2024 season will be right around the corner!

Last Saturday, May 18th, GFES Girls on the Run (GOTR) participated in the GOTR Spring 5K held at Fair Oaks Mall. Despite the rain, our girls and their buddy runners attended and ran their hearts out. Nothing stops these GOTR girls from a fun run! Thank you to head coach Courtney Tsai, assistant coaches Jen Yoon, Laura Cobletz and Cameron Smith, as well as parent volunteer Elle Dickerson!
