Every spring a group of our SIU PTA students make the trek to Golconda to help runners recover after the River to River Relay! We had a great time and a cool and wet day! We even saw two former students that participated in the run. Great to see Katrina Swingler (Deters) and Taryn Bilderbeck (Pender)
