It’s almost turkey time! Check out how one school in Hamilton, MI is starting Thanksgiving break by getting active:

Hamilton Middle School just joined Fuel Up to Play 60 this year, and they’re already hitting the ground running—literally! Two 7th grade students, Shyla T. and Will J., came up with the idea to host a school-wide Turkey Trot 5K. The Fuel Up to Play 60 student team, with help from teachers and parent volunteers, has been working hard these past few weeks creating the course, asking local businesses for sponsorships and getting people to sign up to run or walk the race. There’s even going to be a “Turkey Trot Zone” where students can show off their funky turkey moves! To create additional buzz in the hallways, all home rooms watched a promo video the student team created to get everyone excited for the big race:

Good luck to everyone participating in the 5K today – and don’t forget to fuel up beforehand! How do you and your family plan to get 60 minutes of play during the holidays?
