The 2009/2010 Pickett Pacers will be a running club with a purpose. We will not only have a running component, but we will also emphasize healthy eating and service learning. We have joined forces with Georgetown ISD PTA and committing ourselves to the GET GT FIT program. Their intent is to get the whole community involved in combating obesity, moving away from a sedentary lifestyle, and instilling in everyone a lifelong desire to stay fit. In the future we will sponsor "fun runs" as a way to raise funds to help those in our community that have needs. This is the part of the program where character, leadership, and teamwork will be emphasized. In all of our pursuits, we will never stray away from the academic components. Running distances will include math concepts, planning a fund raiser will entail vocabulary, science, money management, and social aspects. With everyone's blessings we will march (run, walk) until we reach the finish line.
