The marathon is well underway, and as of today, we have raised over $5,200 towards our goal of $36,000. Last week’s winner of the cheese balls was Annabelle Bothun. Everyone who turns in a pledge this week will receive a free homework pass and have their name put in for the drawing for an 8-pack of Gatorade.
School photos are scheduled for tomorrow, forms were sent home last week. We will also be taking a group photo, which will be available for purchase at a later date.
Some weekend Masses still have slots available for collecting pledges for the marathon. This is a great way to catch lots of people at once. Let us know when you would like us to pencil your family in.
