Appleton, Wis. (May 23, 2011) - The Community First Fox Cities Marathon
presented by Kimberly-Clark is giving Northeast Wisconsin schools an
opportunity to get kids moving and the chance to earn funds for school
supplies and equipment from School Specialty. The 2011 School Specialty
School Challenge is getting underway!

weekend events. There are three categories based on enrollment:

-Small Schools (Fewer than 200 students)

The top three schools in each enrollment category will receive School
