We are still voting for Wright on Track in June. We were automatically entered again since we were in the top 100 in May. Pepsi seems to have worked on some of the problems on the website where people could cheat. There are 4 projects from Tucson that we can vote for and they can vote for us!

Remember to vote today for Wright on Track. We think that Pepsi's website is not working correctly. Everyone's rankings are frozen at where they started. Hopefully, will be fixed today as Pepsi comes to work.

13 days left and we're at #37. We can still do it. If you scroll down to the comments on the Pepsi Wright on Track page, you'll see other projects in other $$ categories voting for us in the hopes that we will vote for them. If you can, use your 9 other votes each day to vote for projects that have voted for us. Leave a comment so that they know we voted for them, such as: Wright supports you. Please support us.

Please encourage everyone you know, regardless of where they live, to vote EVERY day and to pass this info on through email, Facebook, Twitter, or even -- dare I say it - good old-fashioned word of mouth. We need YOUR help!

I am a second grade teacher in Tucson, AZ. My school has had a walking/running track for many years and I have seen firsthand the incredible impact daily use of the track has made on the health and well being of my students. That is why I decided to apply for a Pepsi Refresh Everything Grant to build an exercise track for my neighborhood school, Wright Elementary. My second graders wanted to help the kids at Wright get a track and drew these posters to help me explain how valuable a running and walking track is to good health and how much they enjoy the Miler's Club Incentive Program. Watch our video, then vote for Wright Track EVERY DAY in April at refresheverything.com
