(Laredo, Texas)-The time to register is now for United ISD’s 5th Annual Run, Walk, Health Fair and Zumba Master Class!

The 5k Run/Walk and Health Fair will take place on January 16, 2016 at the Student Activity Complex located at 5208 Santa Claudia Lane. The Zumba Master Class will take place on January 23, 2016 at the United 9th Grade gym located at 8800 McPherson Road. Proceeds from both events will benefit United ISD students with scholarships to college.

 

The events are extra special to the District this year because United ISD is dedicating them to the memory of two very special educators who passed away in 2015.  Adriana Rodriguez, a 2nd grade teacher from Ruiz Elementary School and Karina Villarreal, a teacher at St. Augustine Elementary School, who started her career in education as a teacher-aide at Clark Middle School.

“We hope to see many individuals out at the race and zumba master class as we raise funds for our students while highlighting the importance of a healthy lifestyle,” said United ISD Superintedent Roberto J. Santos.

Registration for the Run/Walk and Health Fair is $25 and can be paid at the United ISD Central Office located at 201 Lindenwood Drive or on the day of the event. The health fair will include various community and non-profit organizations that will give out items and offer health screenings to participants.

The Zumba Master Class will be held from 10:00 a.m. to noon on January 23 at the United 9th Grade Gym located at 8800 McPherson Road. Registration for the Zumba Master Class is $20 and can also be paid at the United ISD Central Office. The Zumba Master class will be conducted by elite instructors of the City.

Paid registration for each of these events includes a t-shirt and goody bag and ticket for door prize giveaway.
