Run for funds

Dalton hosted a one mile youth run, followed by a 4.5 mile obstacle course on Saturday to raised funds for repairs at the Leyton Elementary/Junior High School playground in Gurley. Some 230 people participated in the event, which raised about $15,000--including $5,500 from a Cabela's Emerging Leaders team, $1,000 from Matt Mitchell's Get Fit, Stay Fit Challenge money and $2,000 from an anonymous donor.
