Panthers Cross Country Team enjoying some R&R

Panther Cross Country runners are enjoying a week of fun in the sun running in the state parks, kayaking, swimming, and bonding as a team. Day 1 the team traveled from JPII to Summer Camp Beach and took a walk on the beach before relaxing the rest of the night.
