High, Very High!

Do any of you do Jump Rope for Heart?  I have done it every year except for this year (we did a walk-a-thon for our climbing wall).  I love getting the bright colored banners as a "Thank You" for holding the event.  We have approximately 13 banners.  I had them hanging on the wall by a bungee cord and unfortunately, we were missing four random years.  I had to take them off the wall because of the climbing wall installation.






I wasn't sure what to do with them....then I had a wild thought...we have sound boards on the top of our wall, a sky jack had been sitting in the gym for two weeks, and I know that my friend Miss Teresa was always up for a challenge.  We used the sky jack (yes, Miss Teresa and I went up 15 to 20 feet in the air using a sky jack..hahaha). 
OK, take out the man and add two women!
I used a staple gun to attach the banners.  It looks great and best of all, the students can touch them :-)  Also, for the missing banners, I contacted the American Heart Association and they sent me the missing years - YAY!!!
