World Martial Arts Day Kick-A-Thon

Our students participated in the "Kicking in the USA" World Record Kick-A-Thon as part of World Martial Arts Day on Saturday, October 16, 2010. Mayor Cindy Proett and Governor Mark Parkinson proclaimed October 16th as World Martial Arts Day in Hutchinson and the State of Kansas. This fundraiser was sponsored by Hopeful Tomorrow, a national children’s charity. Although we fell short of our goal everyone had a great time. We totaled 25,486 kicks. Taty Huhn raised the most in pledges and had the highest number of kicks at 2,454. Woodly Yoder kicked non-stop for an hour. Great job Woodly!
