The annual effort to get kids active coincides with the NCAA basketball tournament
Each year, Bridle Path Elementary hosts a "March Madness" event, aimed at getting kids active and away from their computers and video games. "It's something fun for the kids, in the spirit of the (NCAA) tournament," said Beth Staab, whose nine-year-old-son Colinn was participating in the 5-on-5 half court competition. The evening featured multiple basketball games, snacks for the kids, and plenty of parents who were more than happy to see their children playing and running around. Please enjoy our photo gallery, and if you have pictures of your own, feel free to add them. For additional photos, please visit the Lansdale Patch on Facebook!
