-On Tuesday, 4th graders who aren't in the ski and snowboard program will be going swimming at the TYFC. Students should remember to bring in a swimsuit, towel, $2 for pool admission, and wear warm clothes for the walk.

- Due to the high number of 4th graders in the the ski/snowboard program this year, we really need 4th grade parents who ski to come along and help chaperone the kids on Tuesdays. Come join the fun, and ski for free! Please call Susan Vernon if you can help: 770-7430, or just show up ready to go at 7:30 Tuesday morning at TCS and let Coach know that you'd like to come along.
