New Simpson Hill held its annual St. Jude’s Bike-a-thon on May 10, 2017. Students in grades 5-8 had an opportunity to raise money for St. Jude’s Children’s Hospital and enjoy a beautiful day on the Tunnel Hill State Trail.
Students rode their bicycles from Tunnel Hill to the Vienna City Park and then back to Tunnel Hill.
The students raised over $2737.00 for the children at St. Jude’s this year.
