It was a beautiful day for Field Day at Fort Calhoun Elementary on Friday, May 4th. Students enjoyed rotating through the different events such as Three Legged Race, Water Dash, and a Relay Race. The day ended with the traditional tug-a-war with the 6th graders and the teacher. This year, the teachers won!
