Action news now reporter spencer joseph joins us live lauren... a million dollars can buy a lot of things but today it bought a lot of smiles on the faces of track students when they tried out their brand new gear.
Kool april nites& nat: a week long car show of epic proportions.
But whats also so kool about this classic car show& is the 1 million dollar figure that this event has raised over its 30 year run sot: we all think that we are going to push it over 1 million dollars this year... we are at about 95?
Thousand give or take and we all think we are going to push it over and all that money is staying right here in the town where the show got its start& stand up: sot: so i got to use the amount for a very nice pit you see here& and that's awesome because the other one we had was about 15 years old and it was a hand me down.
This is the first time kids at boulder creek have had the oportunity to use their new high jump set up& totally paid for& along with a 3d printer for the science department& courtesy of kool april nites.
Sot: its actually huge cause with the little school that we are there is not a lot of funds for athletics and it would have taken us a long time for us to fundraise for it.
And it being the first time and all& the kids dared me to try it out& nat okay not so great but boy did these kids make me feel like i won an olympic medal&.
Sot: so now that the kids have matching equipment it is really going to help them out on their meets with matching equipment.
