Salt River Elementary School’s annual Field Day was nacho average event this year. A fun-filled afternoon of food, water and play brought students and families together on April 25.

The event kicked off with a nacho lunch of tortilla chips and ground beef. The meal provided students with energy for the afternoon ahead.

Once out on the field, students rotated in classic activities like tug-of-war, bean bag toss and scooter board games.

Huddles of students planning their next move in flag football, or lines of students cheering on their teammates in tug-of-war showcased the student’s athleticism, teamwork and competitive spirit. Surrounding the games, multiple water bounce houses provided an escape from the heat.

To heighten the fun, a water hose from the Salt River Fire Department transformed the playground into a mini waterpark. Teachers and volunteers ensured the activities ran smoothly and that all students were having fun.

To close the field day, Miss Salt River Sialik King served snow cones to the students.
