Students who raise a minimum of $160 will be entered for a chance to win prizes like a bicycle, a plane trip around the valley, and those who raise more than $25 are entered into a draw for gift bags.

Gift certificates and coupons will also be given to the students during a hot dog lunch at Swalwell Park on May 5 when students will walk from the park to Lodge Road and then to the rail trail.
