Walk-a-Thon this Sunday

The Friends of the Pool Walk-a-Thon takes place this Sunday from 1 to 3 p.m. on the track at Finney Field. The children of Odessa take pledges and walk or run the track in order to raise money for the Odessa Aquatic Recreation Center.

Prizes and special games are run throughout the event, and every child receives a special T-shirt. Special prizes are awarded to those who finish the most laps.

It is fun for the participants and involves a good cause.
