Students who organized the annual Jump Rope for Heart at Granite Ridge Education Centre, an event that now includes 7 different athletic events including shooting hoops and more, posed for a photo at the end of the frantic 90 minutes of activity among the elementary panel at Granite Ridge on Monday June 5th. Catherine Reynolds, who has been running the fund raising event for the Heart and Stroke Foundation for four years at the new school at a nuber before that at the former Hinchinbrooke school in Parham, said she has learned that it is a lot easier to turn the organising over to a team of heroes than to do all the work herself. This year the event has raised $1400 for Heart and Stroke thus far, and money is still trickling in.
