Charitable Kids’ “Olympics” Hosted at Ford Center at The Star

More than 500 students visited The Star in Frisco, Texas on July 22nd to culminate their summer activities. Students competed in a day of friendly games between nine of the local Kids 'R' Kids of greater Dallas area schools. The students also spent the summertime working - from dance-a-thons, odd jobs, talent shows, carnivals, and more - raising money for Texas Scottish Rite Hospital for Children.

While 2018's event raised approximately $18,000 for Scottish Rite Hospital, this year's proceeds exceeded that at a total of $22,442.

"It's truly heartwarming to see Kids 'R' Kids students working so hard to give back and further the work of the hospital," said Stephanie Brigger, VP of Development for Scottish Rite Hospital. "Since the opening of the new Scottish Rite for Children Orthopedic and Sports Medicine Center in Frisco, the support we receive from our community is fundamental in continuing our mission of providing world-class medical care regardless of any family's ability to pay."

The day's schedule began with the national anthem, sung by an alumni patient of the Children's Hospital and a check presentation of the funds raised for the hospital. The games were facilitated by The Gym Station and included Soccer Shootout, Sack Races, 50-Yard Dash, and a Football Obstacle Course. The event ended with the announcement of the winning teams and presentation of trophies; the overall game winner, the most team spirit and the Grand Trophy for the most funds raised.

"The children have been working enthusiastically toward this day all summer," said Tammy Huff, owner of Kids 'R' Kids Legacy West and West Frisco. "This wonderful experience instills core values that last a lifetime."
