First Baptist preschoolers trike for St. Jude

Children ride tricycles and scooters through a colorful inflatable archway during this spring’s St. Jude Trike-a-Thon at First Baptist Church.

Thirty-eight riders in the First Baptist Weekday Preschool program’s fourth annual St. Jude Trike-a-Thon this spring raised $3,145 for St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital.


Pam Flowers, preschool minister and director for the Weekday program, coordinates the event, with the Zeta Rho chapter of Epsilon Sigma Alpha service group co-sponsoring.

In addition to raising funds for the Memphis-based hospital, the ride raised awareness and support for children facing serious illnesses.
