Fleet feet: Opportunity Elementary School second-graders Syana Olson, left, Derek Maney, center, and Riley Kekahuna attempt the pretzel jump-roping maneuver during the kickoff to the school’s Jump Rope for Heart on Monday in Spokane Valley. The move involves twisting an arm under a leg and hopping on one foot. With a grant and PTO support, the 450 students were led by special guest and five-time jump rope champion Rene Bibaud. Monday’s event kicked off a two-week period when the school will collect money to benefit the American Heart Association. The goal is to raise $2,500. (Dan Pelle)
