Camino Pablo School's third, fourth, and fifh graders were repeat winners of the 25th annual Moraga Rotary Field Day, amassing a total of 97 points. Second place went to Rheem School, with a total of 89 points. Rheem had the highest participation, with 55 percent of its potential athletes competing, and fielded 120 of the record 324 contestants from all Moraga schools, including Saklan which fielded 16 athletes.
The total medal counts for each school were: Rheem, 54; Camino Pablo, 49; Los Perales, 37, and Saklan, 4. The athletes winning the most points were both from Camino Pablo. The High Point Boy was Tristan Anderle, a fourth grader in Mr. Barnett's class, and the High Point Girl was Ava Garcia, a third grader in Mr. Matthews' class. Mr. Matthews' students combined to win the most points, 28.
Moraga Rotary conducts Field Day as a community service to introduce elementary school children to entry-level track and field competition among the Moraga schools. The main goal is for the athletes, parents, and teachers to enjoy the competition and to have a good time.
The Field Day chairman, Rotarian Tony Schoemehl, praised the school teachers, principals, and parents for encouraging the children to participate, and thanked Coach Randy Bennett and the Saint Mary's Gaels' basketball teams for their help and for encouraging the athletes to compete. Thanks also to parents who helped direct the children around to the various events, and to parents who helped with the field events.
Rotary Club of Moraga holds regular meetings on most Tuesdays at the Soda Center at St. Mary's College. For further information, please call Frank May at 925-376-8195, or check out moragarotary.org.
