Southgate to host walk-a-thon
There’s going to be a lot of gators on the prowl in southwest Austin Tuesday.
Southgate Elementary School’s annual walk-a-thon takes place at 8:30 a.m.
Last year, students earned about $13,500. For the past 16 years, students at Southgate have collected donations from the community. On average, the walk-a-thon earns between $12-$14,000 each year, money which is used by Southgate’s Parent Teacher Committee to buy school supplies and pay for lectures, field trips and other necessary educational opportunities.
