What better way to celebrate a great fall running season than another run! We will be hosting a costume obstacle fun run, and everyone is invited!  To ensure enough treat bags are prepared, we are asking kids to return sign up slips to Brener office no later than Wed Oct 28.  Information and sign up sheets were sent home in Wednesday folder early Oct, and are available in the office at Brener and Hillcrest.  Older siblings are welcome as well, to help lead the younger kids.

When:  Friday, October 30th, 4:30 pm; rain date Monday, Nov 2

Where:  Field between Brener and Middle School

Cost:  free, however, cash donations are appreciated, to benefit Shawano Area Matthew 25 emergency shelter

There will be prizes for top finishers of each age group, and for best costumes.  No scary costumes or weapons, please!  Parent(s) or guardian need to be present, and are encouraged to participate or help supervise!

BE WARE---There will be a quiz after the race about the obstacles!  So, slow down and pay attention and think!  Turn in quiz by Nov 4 to Brener office.  There will be prizes for the best answers.

Don't forget to stay for the dance at 6 pm Oct 30!  Burn up those calories from Halloween treats!

Items needed

Obstacles:   
1) All you dads and older brothers out there who love football, come dressed up as your favorite player, with helmet and shoulder pads if you have them!  GROWL at the runners as they come by! 
2) Old TV boxes?  
3) Empty soda cans ready for kids to crush
4) Lawn chairs and people who just wish to sit and watch runners zig zag by you, maybe reading magazine or napping or pretending to be changing channels or just playing on your phone?
5) Large treat bowls with naughty candy; chips; Little Debbie's
6) Pumpkin leaf bags filled with leaves.  Offer to rake an elderly neighbor's yard!
7) Pizza boxes, greasy ones ok.
 
Prizes:  Do you have any new or gently used items you can donate as prize for winners?  For example, that nice hat you got for Christmas that isn't your favorite color; an extra copy of a book, etc.  This is a good chance to clear out some space on your shelf!  Bring to Brener office by Wed 10/28 unwrapped.   

Snacks:  We'll need individual packs of healthier treats like granola bars, apple sauce, string cheese, trail mix, fruit snacks, etc; and large bags of snacks to put together for treat bags--popcorn, pretzels, fish crackers, M&M's, raisins, nuts, gummy candies; glow bracelets or little plastic spiders/bugs/toys, pencils, tattoo, stickers.  Quart sized ziplock bags.

Finally, large garbage bags, and willing hands to clean up after the party!
