Maple Point Middle School Student Council 5K for Japan Earthquake/Tsunami Relief

On March 11, 2011 the people of Japan endured a devastating earthquake and tsunami disaster. Over 250,000 people remain in temporary shelters as the country begins the daunting task of reorganizing and rebuilding. We are interested in doing what we can to assist this process. On April 30, 2011, the Maple Point Middle School Student Council will host a 5K Walk/Run to support the American Red Cross relief efforts in Japan.

The details for the event are as follows:

MPMS Student Council 5K Walk/Run for Japan
- Saturday, April 30 – Participants will meet in auditorium at 9:00AM
- Course will include campus of Maple Point Middle School and adjacent portion of Core Creek Park
- Participants may walk/run competitively for prizes or at their own leisure to support the cause
- Refreshments will be provided for all walkers/runners
- This event is open to students, their families and any community members wishing to participate!
**ALL PROCEEDS WILL GO DIRECTLY TO AMERICAN RED CROSS**
