Skeleton Skedaddle

Runners in the Missoula community are helping physical therapy students expand their education.

Skeleton Skedaddle is an annual race and fundraiser to help UM physical therapy student association. The seventy thousand dollars raised will help third year physical therapy students travel to a networking conference.  

Kelli Ross participated for the first time this year. She says that she selects races that allows her to donate to worthy groups.

More than one hundred and sixty runners participated during the day and raised over a thousand dollars more than last year.

School of Music Events

The school of music hosts a variety concerts that can help people celebrate the holidays. I went to the halloween event called the Choral Spooktacular to see how they did this. families showed up to this musical performance with their kids dressed up in costume. At the end of the event children got to trick or treat on stage. Another holiday event coming up on December 14th is the 8th annual holiday swing. This concert is similar to the choral Spooktaular but is Christmas themed.
