In a school carnival and fundraiser for the Red Cross, Lake City Secondary Students took advantage of the festivities to soak teachers and have some fun Thursday and Friday.
With some activities free - blow up obstacle courses and challenges - and some that required $1 tickets - balloon animals, freezies and the chance to sink a teacher into a dunk tank, the field was busy at the Columneetza campus on Friday.
The same event happened the day before at the Williams Lake campus.
The idea for the event, called “Canada Day in May,” came from a school in Abbotsford, said leadership teacher, Ryan Hanley.
Last year, the school fundraised for Cops for Cancer, but this year, he said, it just made sense for the money to go towards the Red Cross, following last summer’s wildfires.
