Oceanside High School’s softball team ran to raise funds.
It was a gorgeous day for the 2nd annual 4K Walkathon for Alex’s Lemonade Stand. Music was played and bracelets were sold. Many came to walk the track at Oceanside High School on May 29. Together, they raised $1,900 for pediatric cancer research. The foundation was created in 2000 by Alexandra “Alex” Scott, a four-year-old with childhood cancer.
