My Project

The track team at Tanaina Elementary is looking to be able to participate in the high jump event at the local elementary track meet! The athletes need to be able to have a safe place to land so a mat is needed to help the athletes!

The athletes would like to improve their speed so some additional parachutes would be awesome!

The athletes at Tanaina have worked hard this season and would benefit from the extra materials to continue to improve their abilities during track season.

Please consider donating to the Tanaina Track team!
