\"Tamara<\/a>SACRAMENTO, Calif. \u2014<\/p>\n

Hundreds of kids laced up their shoes for a great cause at Caleb Greenwood Elementary on Friday. <\/p>\n

The annual jog-a-thon raises money for the arts, music, and enrichment programs at the school.<\/p>\n

Over the past few months, students have asked friends and family members to make a pledge to them based on how many laps they would complete or just make a flat donation.<\/p>\n

The goal of the school is to raise $50,000. All of that money will be used to fund school enrichment projects, arts and music programs for the year.<\/p>\n

PTSO jog-a-thon chair Kelly Parks said, \u201cIt\u2019s one of the school\u2019s largest fundraisers of the year.\u201d<\/p>\n

Each grade level takes a turn on the track to log laps throughout the day. The kids have also been training to do the jog-a-thon for the past few months.<\/p>\n
