FIREBALL RUN

FIREBALL RUN Adventurally Series at Universal Studios Florida is a part live event, part streaming show, and part episodic online TV series. With just 40 teams selected annually the FIREBALL RUN is an 8 day, 14 destination life-altering experience.  FIREBALL RUN is a life-sized trivial pursuit game; to score teams solve clues and accomplish tasks. Each team searchs for a missing child.

 This was an event I could not miss as all of the kids from Alamosa Elementary school were expected to participate and I had already being invited by many of them.

Despite the rain and hail, the Fireball Run racers arrived in Alamosa on Sunday night, September 22nd, and sped away Monday morning, September 23rd. Alamosa was the second stop on the eight-day , 2,000-mile event filmed for the Fireball Run TV series, Season 7, All Stars and Movie Cars. The special guest announcer for the Alamosa stop was three-time Indianapolis 500 winner and racing legend, Bobby Unser.

This was a great opportunity to address this sad issue with our children. In the coming days at tutoring, we talked about a few cases of kids missing and some of the things we can do to prevent kidnapping.

 We are trilled to have a new program join us.  Early Steps, a federal educational program that builds parenting skills and student school readiness through home visitations and various resources to help children achieve a lifetime of learning, held a special session with our kids at the end of the summer.

 Early Steps truly believes that the best teachers out there are the parents. The goal is to get parents involve in the education of their children through activities.

Early Steps held a session with our kids and parents at the office. Their visit was a great success! Parents and kids truly enjoyed the activities. I'm proud to say that  50 attendees parents included got the opportunity to benefit from this program.

We hope this is only the first of many visits. We love partnering with programs that encourage our kids and parents to work and learn together. Thank you Early Steps for making this special day happen!!
