Mr. Greg Graber is the Head of the Middle School at Lausanne and he will be running an ultra-marathon in Frisco, Missouri on April 27. He needs encouragement to complete this grueling 31.06 mile (50K) run.

You can help Mr. Graber be a "Rock Star" and support this year's auction "Lausanne Rocks!" The form below will help people sign up so they can support him by giving one dollar or more per mile. For example, if you sponsor $1 per mile, $31 will benefit the auction!

Here's the link to help him run.

The University of Memphis will hold its 2013 Earth Day event Thursday, April 18, 10 a.m. to 2 p.m.on campus at the Oasis garden. The garden is next to the campus police station, east of the Elma Roane Fieldhouse.

"The event is hosted by the University of Memphis TIGUrS (Tiger Initiative for Gardening in Urban Settings), and it will have so many awesome features," said U of M Publications Writer Laura Fenton. "There will be local earth-friendly businesses and parks with booths, give-aways, 'zero-waste,' zumba and tai chi group classes, etc."
