On Tuesday, November 28th, Page’s very own Basketball team, Cheer team, and Red Steel Drumline travelled to Gillespie Park Elementary and Cone Elementary. Third-grade students at these schools were asked to write an essay on the importance of kindness. Students were incentivized by the possibility to win a free bike from the Bikes for Kids Foundation if their essay came in the top 3.

Page students were stationed outside the auditorium as students entered for the assembly, awaiting the announcement of the contest winners.  The Red Steel Drumline performed while the Cheer and Basketball teams welcomed and encouraged the elementary students.

As a surprise, the Bikes for Kids Foundation announced that every third grader at the schools would receive a brand new bike and helmet. As the kids cheered at the announcement, Page’s Drumline played in celebration.
