KCA Track & Field

Thursday, May 12, 2016 - Thursday was KCA's (Koinonia Christian Academy) Track & Field day.  So us SLI's were scheduled to help out as volunteers for this event (at the church).  So we did and it was a ton of fun.  The day was super warm, sunny and clear skies (the next day was cool, cloudy and rainy - Praise God for a clear day).   From 9-noon, I was a timer for the 50, 100, 200, 400, 800 and 1500 meter runs.   Then I was moved over to Triple Jump (like long jump, except there are 3 steps/jumps that happen before you make the final jump).   I helped out with Triple Jump until the end, about 2:00.   Then the volunteers had a Long Jump completion.  I jumped a 4.06m (about 13.3 feet), and placed third.  Then Janette and I had to leave early (about 2:15)  to go to Kidzone, which also was a ton of fun.  It was a full day of fun, excitement and joy!  

Here are a handful of photos that other people took at the event:

A few of us SLI's are timing the 100m races while someone is videoing the finish so we know the exact order if the timings fail.
