Events included 10k/5K run, 2km run-walk and a 500M kids bicycle race. Post race festivities included student rockbands, kids games, food, as well as etiquette reminder cards. All money raised will go towards the Pride Project, an initiative from the non-profit organization, the Pride Institute. Their aim is to encourage courtesy and promote positive peer pressure in day-to-day life.
