5K for Autism!

Last Saturday was the Autism Run and CCEA volunteered to help out! First we helped with the fun run which was a mile long. We stood along the way as to guide the runners. We cheered on them and supported them! There were a bunch of tables set up on the lawn next to the library. Each table had something different. The table CCEA was working was a fun sand art activity for the kids. We had several different color sands and several different plastic shapes. The kids got to pick which shaped they wanted. There were elephants (my favorite animal), lions, dolphins, fish, zebras, suns, and sand castles. Once the kids picked their shape, they got to put whatever color sand they wanted in the shape. They could use multiple colors! All the kids loved it! We actually ran out of shapes! It was a lot of fun and for a great cause! Everyone enjoyed the day! CCEA was very happy to be apart of such a successful day!
