The South End Interschool Track Meet featured a full day of track and field events for students aged 10 in 100 Mile House, June 9.
Hosted by 100 Mile House Elementary School, vice-principal Jim Price organized the event. He says the weatherman co-operated and it was great day for the event.
"The fierce competition among competitors and their excellent sportsmanship made for a great day of entertainment for parents and students alike. A big thanks to everyone who helped make this day a success."
One record, set in 1985, was broken, and it came in the 13-year-old female high jump.
Keyanna McNeil of Mile 108 set the new record 1.40 metres.
