2012 Sandstone Olympics!

The 2012 Sandstone Olympics happened this weekend, with about 50 kids, and their proud parents.  This was the third annual Olympics for the neighborhood, and we upped the stakes with a live band this time - the "Killer Bees!"  Luke took a gold medal in the high jump, and Jack and Libby did an awesome job with setup and judging, with some of their friends!  The weather was perfect for sports - 70 degrees and sunny, and the young Olympians had an awesome time.  We stayed with the basics:  50-Yard Dash, High Jump, Long Jump, Running Long Jump, Softball Throw, and a "Marathon" (0.44 miles, around the block).  The youngest athletes did the obstacle course, hill sledding, an airplane toss for distance, bubbles and balloons, bike and relay races, and chalk art.
