The run for the zoo is coming up! I know a lot of you have participated in this in previous years and I am excited for our school to participate again this year! I am particularly excited to see you all run and have the chance to run with you. The run is on Sunday, May 6th and different runs start at different times. The 1mile fun run/walk and the 3mile (5k) fun run/walk are both only $10 for students. If you would like to challenge yourself and participate in the 5k race, which I think is a great idea, registration is only $12.
Because I really want everyone to participate in this event, I am offering extra credit for registering and running in one of the runs on May 6th. If you register and run, you will receive one free homework or 2 extra points on a test. For every friend or family member that you recruit, you will receive an extra free homework or 2 more points on a test. This could really help your grade, so encourage all your friends, cousins, aunts, uncles, parents, grandparents, and brothers and sisters to get out there and run for the zoo!
This event raises money for the Albuquerque BioPark, which includes the zoo, aquarium, and botanical gardens. The BioPark hosts many educational programs, such as the BioVan, which you were all able to experience this week. Without fundraisers like this run, educational programs like the BioVan would not be possible. Please support your BioPark!

Registration forms and fees are due to me by Friday, March 30th!
I almost forgot, every single person that registers will receive an awesome t-shirt and free entry to the BioPark for the rest of the day! What a fabulous way to spend a Spring Sunday!
