Kids Track Meet



This was our third year at the Kid's Central Vermont Track Meet. What a great activity for kids here in Montpelier. Every year kids preschool-5th grade can participate in this four event track meet. This was our little guy's first year participating. They started with the long jump. The 1/4 mile (1 trip around the track) was the highlight event. Little Nootch ran quite a race. She squeezed past an older girl to finish 2nd. Then the softball throw and finishing out with the 100 yard dash. Something happened right off the start to Little man T at the beginning of his 1/4 mile race. He ended up falling 5 sec. into the race with scuffed knees and it ended his track meet experience for the day. The smiles finally came back when he heard his name called. He limped up to get his medal and wore it proudly the rest of the evening.
