CIRCLE OF FRIENDS 

The next meeting will be held on Friday, March 22.  Thank you.

HOME & SCHOOL MEETING

The next meeting will be held on Thursday, March 21st in the Parish Social Hall @ 6:30 p.m.

Archery Practices

Archery Parents:  Wednesday:  3:30-5:00 p.m. & Saturday 1:30-3:00 p.m.
**Important to attend the last five practices**

Mr. Saunders is not able to attend all of the practices on Wednesdays.  We are looking for a parent that would be willing to help Mr. Steil once in a while on Wednesday afternoons from 3:30 to 5:00 p.m.  It would be of great assistance to have extra eyes during practice for added safety precautions.

The gym will not be available for practices, due to the Kaleidoscope fundraiser, from Sunday, March 10th through Sunday, March 17th.

The date for the Nebraska Archery Tournament has been set.  It will be held on Saturday, March 23rd in Lincoln.  As soon as more information is obtained regarding the tournament, we will pass this along.  The fee for the tournament is $13 per archer and transportation is $5 per family if you are riding the bus.  Please turn in the fee for the tournament as soon as possible. 

If you have any questions or concerns, please let me know.

Kaleidoscope 2013 - Update

We have had a few parents sign up to help the night of the event.  We still need more help with food and beverage donations, light and stage hands, a couple more people to help with clean up and another person to help with the silent auction.  Sign up sheets wents home a couple of weeks ago as well as details of the event itself.  This has been the schools biggest fundraiser for the last several years and parent participation is vital.  Please contact the school office to make reservations, even if you can't help that night, we would like to encourage you to attend.
