  • Adjust the flow of the run to help out the the TK/K students ( 4 corner lap counting stations)
  • Have a T Shirt Strategy: affordable and profitable shirts that are passed out in time for the run, encourage re-use of shirts, etc

Mascot Costume

Begin production sketches and concept work towards a mascot in this style (Face on midsection instead of character face lining up with performer head)

Build something robust enough to be used for at least 5 years that is warm and cute, a little bit generalized and basic, but can be used for boosting school spirit

Work backward from a day in April/May to plan:

  • A student voting opportunity
  • Debut at a school event / end of school year assembly
