Enough Said, Snakes are Dead




I had so much fun watching the kids at West Sabine Independent School District participate in the Frogs and Snakes contest. The entire district and community were involved in this exciting event. Fifth graders (frogs) and Sixth graders (snakes) competed against each other in several events including sack races, tire pulling, egg carrying, and tug of war. The gym was full to capacity and the kids did their best running back and forth working as a team to win this year's trophy and claim to the winner of the Frogs & Snakes 2009 championship. High school kids cheered for their team which in some cases included their younger sibling. They remembered when they were part of the competition in the not so distant past. I did some video for the organizers to remember the day, but had to leave before the end. When I asked some of the kids "who won"? "Snakes, of course!" was their answer. Better luck next year, Frogs! This was an exciting day for everyone! Then, school was released for the Thanksgiving holidays!
