Subway Victory Lap Celebration is Here
Congratulations, Teachers! Thank you so much for encouraging your Go!Kids throughout the Diamond Shamrock Go!Kids Challenge™ . All your hard work will be rewarded when you see your kids complete their Subway Victory Lap and earn their finisher’s medals and t-shirts. On Sunday, December 5, the effort of the past 10 weeks will be celebrated at the Alamodome from 2 to 4 p.m. Please encourage every child who completed the program to attend with his or her family. Each child MUST bring their completed journal or the final coupon from the journal.
Ready…Set…Go!
Mayor Ed Garza will be on hand to kick-off the Subway Victory Lap. Local Olympian Josh Davis and Paralympians Ross Davis, Casey Tibbs and Larry Quintero, sponsors and other dignitaries will be there to help cheer on the thousands of Go!Kids. The celebration will begin at 1:45 p.m. with a huge group warm-up led by Spectrum Health Clubs before the walk starts at 2 p.m. Children will be welcome to walk their victory lap at any time between 2 and 4 p.m.
Fun for Everyone
The Subway Victory Lap Celebration will be fun for the entire family. After the children walk their victory lap, they can enjoy activities at a variety of sponsor booths. At the Subway booth, Go!Kids can become Subway sandwich artists, play Jared's Pants Game and participate in a Go!Kids Go activity center. Spectrum Health Clubs will host exercise stations in its area. Children can get fun temporary tattoos at the Methodist Health Care booth. WeMakePEFun.com will demonstrate their playground equipment that has been offered as a participation incentive for teachers. The San Antonio Sports Foundation's Dreams for Youth program will have an area set up for Go!Kids to try sports like fencing and badminton.
Adults will be able to register for a chance to win Spurs tickets from PacifiCare, and Spurs tickets and free gas from Diamond Shamrock.
Logistics
Free parking will be available in Lot C at the Alamodome for all cars and buses. Signage will direct everyone to enter the Alamodome through the south tunnel (on the Durango St. side). Volunteers will greet the Go!Kids and their families and direct them to the check-in tables. There, the children will present their completed journals or final coupon from the journal. Only those who provide this proof of completion will be issued a finisher’s t-shirt, and only those children wearing their t-shirts will be awarded a finisher’s medal.
If Your Go!Kids Cannot AttendWe know that not every Go!Kid will be able to attend the Subway Victory Lap Celebration. The Sports Foundation will distribute finisher’s medals to participating school districts this week. The districts will then distribute them to the schools. Please DO NOT distribute them to students until after the December 5 Subway Victory Lap Celebration.
Only those children who have completed the Diamond Shamrock Go!Kids Challenge™ and attend the Subway Victory Lap Celebration will receive a t-shirt.
