St. Anthony Hosts GWHS In Annual Track Fundraiser

St. Anthony runners Kyle Hartke and Kristen Slaughter presented a check to the GWHS track program.

Effingham St. Anthony High School played host to George Washington High School inn the annual fundraiser for the school from the south side of Chicago.

This year over $600 and numerous pairs of shoes were donated by St. Anthony students and parents. Starter Andy Pullen also donated his pay to GWHS. St. Anthony parents supplied two tables of snacks for the two teams. The St. Anthony Booster Club provided pizza and drinks for the teams. Mindy Nosbisch of Homewood Grill donated ice cream to GWHS for their trip home.

"It was a great day as both schools enjoyed competing and visiting with each other," said St. Anthony AD Kevin Palmer. "The relationship between St. Anthony H.S. and GWHS continues to grow. I am sure Mike Mitchell was watching over both schools enjoying seeing the tradition he started continue."

No team scores were kept just competition in the events.
