Just a reminder about the recruitment picnic and concert on Monday, the 12th. Please remember that we are furnishing the food for the band and the 8th grades from two schools. The boosters will cook hamburgers and hot dogs, and everyone else will bring stuff according to grade level:
9th - 2 liters of drinks
10th - Side items such as chips, potato salad, etc.
11th - Desserts
Last year, we almost didn’t have enough. David Cook saved the day by running out and picking up extra, so PLEASE bring plenty!
The picnic starts at 6:00, but those cooking need to be there earlier. The concert is at 7:00. See you there!
