Teams carried the day at the May 4 Fairfax CASA Run for the Children 8K Race and 3K Run/Walk. Over 28 teams participated in the run, with Team SRA raising the most funds and Team Liberty Middle School bringing out the runners with over 60 students, teachers, and parents joining in on the fun.

The funds raised by these enterprising teams helped Fairfax CASA raise over $100,000 at the race to support the work of CASA volunteers advocating for abused and neglected children living under the court's protection.
