Parents,

Thank you so much for the generous donations this year.  Every little thing you do makes a big difference, and it is truly appreciated!

Reminders:

• Send in any donations for "Backyard BBQ" theme for basket raffle.  We have a cooking pot, some utensils, spices, and BBQ sauce so far. 
• The Whitehouse Primary Birthday Bash is Friday, October 5 from 5-9 PM.  As I understand it, his is going to be a carnival-like event at school with lots of fun activities (laser tag, bounce houses, games etc...).  It should be a great time!
• Next Wednesday is the trip to the Canal and Mill at Providence Metropark.  Student can earn extra credit in Social Studies if they dress in any kind of "Pioneer"-style clothing.  (Think: flannel shirts, jeans, rope belts, suspenders, floppy hats, bandanas, dresses, bonnets, etc...).  This really adds to the fun of the experience as we imagining living in the 1800's.
