Serving the community since 1922
Serving the community since 1922
Terese Burke Elementary School is where the Running 4 the House event began 15 years ago, and it was still going strong last weekend at the school. This event was developed by PE teacher Jill Rodriguez, Principal Brad Maberry and Scarlet Sabin from the Ronald McDonald Organization. Each year staff and students raise donations for the Ronald McDonald House in Bakersfield then enjoy a fun day of running laps, sack races, dancing and prizes to celebrate their hard work. Last year, the event raised $6,962. "Several families for our community have been able to stay in the house while their baby is in the hospital," said Principal Jan Hummel. "This fundraiser means a great deal to the staff and students of Teresa Burke." Under the balloons is Carol Espitia's third grade class, with Burke the Mustang. Principal Jan Hummel is pictured with Vice President Maria Maldonado, Burke the Mustang and Scarlet Sabin from the McDonald's organization.
