The training schedule includes running 12 miles August 23, 15 miles August 30 and 20 miles the following weekend. The runs are held rain or shine, and often cover part of the marathon course. Call the Fulton YMCA at 598-9622 or email [email protected] for information on the training run meeting time and place.”
“Due to the current construction at G. Ray Bodley High School, the location for Thursday’s Senior Picture retakes for the 2010 Fultonian Yearbook has changed. Students are asked to enter through the temporary main entrance in the teacher’s parking lot and pictures will take place in room 132 rather than the auditorium. Room 132 is right around the corner from the entrance, which will make it easier for everyone involved.
The photographers will be at GRB from 9 a.m. to 2 p.m. on Thurs. Aug. 27. There is no charge for students who did not have their portrait taken in June, but there is a $10 retake fee which will be collected at the time of the pictures.”
