Dear Visitation Families,
You should have received an accounting of volunteer hours and fund-raising dollars your family has generated to date. If you noticed that you haven't done many (or any) hours, there are still many activities you can participate in to finish up your hours and have some fun, too!
Remember that each family is required to donate three hours towards the auction and Auction Central is in need of all the hands it can muster to finish up the baskets and other needs for the Auction. Be sure to contact Marta Palmquist-Cady or Annette Thomas.
Tona Mickelson, our PTO president, has put together a list of opportunities for hours. Look for it in today's Note Home. You can also take care of hours by working in your parish. Visitation Parish is looking for help with the Phoenix Housing. Look for more information in the vestibule of the Church. When we all contribute our time and talent, we strengthen our community.
SPEAKING OF TALENT: Auditions will be held during lunch in the Music Room on March 29 and 30th. Check today's envelope for a sign-up form. The Talent Show is scheduled for April 27th.
NO BAND: There will be no band practice on Friday, March 16th. Mr. Anderson will be at the Bellarmine Faculty Retreat.
GREAT FOOD, FUN TIME: St. John of the Woods is hosting their annual Crab Feed on Saturday, March 17th. The food is tasty and not expensive! What a great way to spend St. Patrick's Day.
MORE GREAT FOOD AND FUNTIMES: Be sure you have marked your calendar for the Family Night Carnival on March 23rd in the Lower Hall. Check out today's flier for more information.
CONGRATULATIONS: Our Junior High Boys' Basketball Team defeated All Saints in the last game of the season. Their overall record is five wins and two losses. Good work Team and Coaches!
ISSUES OF ENVIRONMENT: Be sure to ask a 7th grader to talk about environmental issues affecting the Columbia River. Ten of our 7th graders participated in International Day along with a number of other 7th graders from Catholic Schools around the area. They spent the day learning about environmental issues involving the world and our region.
PRAYERS PLEASE: continued prayers for the grandfather of Alex (PK) who is fighting cancer.
Peace and Blessing,
Sheila Harrison,
Principal
