"So much in life depends on our attitude. The way we choose to see things and respond to others makes all the difference. To do the best we can and then to choose to be happy about our circumstances, whatever they may be, can bring peace and contentment."—Thomas S. Monson

Cougar 5K Fun Run

 Last Saturday we had our annual Cougar 5K Fun Run and Freshman Sendoff Breakfast.
You can participate in the Fun Run for free but if you want to have breakfast it costs $5 per person or $20 per family. We invite all the newly accepted freshman to attend the breakfast free of charge.
We had around 250 people attend this year. It was a HUGE success. 
It was a beautiful morning and all the Cougar Fans in Boise LOVE getting together to support BYU!
 Before the run:


On your mark, get set, GO!

 Getting ready to serve breakfast


 Of course we serve blue pancakes, sausage, fruit and juice!

Tom handing out prizes and asking BYU trivia questions.
 The Elders showed up to help.
 This year we have BANNERS!!! donated by Hewlett Packer
 We had a steady line of people waiting for pancakes from 9-10 am

 We have an AWESOME Alumni chapter board who are so willing to help in any way!
Next event, BYU Golf tournament fundraiser in September.

You guys even make me want to say, "Go-o-o-o-o-o.
Cougars!"And that's something, coming from a true Aggie!
