October 30, 2009 — The 18th annual Health Organization of Physical Educators (H.O.P.E.) Fun Run was held on Saturday, Oct. 24 at the Langham Creek High School track.
The Fun Run raises funds to support district physical education departments and scholarships for graduating CFISD seniors who plan to pursue an education degree in health, physical education, recreation or dance. Two graduating seniors received H.O.P.E. scholarships in May 2009.
Fifty-five CFISD campuses were represented at this year’s run. More than 2,100 participants pre-registered for the event and more than 3,000 were in attendance. District P.E. teachers served as volunteers at the run.
“The H.O.P.E. Fun Run continues to be a popular annual event. The event has grown as the district has grown,” said Loretta Bourn, elementary P.E. and health coordinator. “After 18 years of providing scholarships for CFISD graduates, some of the recipients of the H.O.P.E. scholarship even return to Cy-Fair as teachers. H.O.P.E. members appreciate the school and community support of the annual fun run.”
