We enjoyed having so many of you at school for river clean-up and even more of you for our potluck on Saturday! Quite a bit of rubbish was collected from the river, and our lunch was delicious as always. Â We will be sorting and weighing our finds and tracking what we collect from the river throughout the year.
We are looking forward to another gorgeous day outside on Friday for our Wheelathon. Thanks to everyone for drumming up pledges for this event. If you can come to help us supervise young riders,please let your teacher know. We’ll need extra hands starting at 9:45 until about noon. Parents welcome to stay for lunch, as well. Thanks to Cheryl and Tony Farrar (whose children are Dragonfly alumi) of Bike and Sport for offering up their fix-it stand. They will be fixing flats, raising seats, adjusting training wheels, etc. during the event.
We hope you all have a chance to get out and enjoy this amazing start-of-fall weather!
