A bevy of students — 868 to be exact — from 20 Northshore elementary schools participated in the annual Pumpkin Run Oct. 20 at Pop Keeney Field.
Seventy pumpkins were awarded to the first-through-fifth-place finishers in 14 different races. Several hundred dollars worth of food and donations were raised for Hopelink. This was made possible by a joint effort of Northshore School District, Bothell High cross country and several businesses including QFC of Bothell and Canyon Park and Rite Aid and Albertson’s of Canyon Park.
