8th grade celebration update

Hello All We need to cancel the next meeting on March 2nd because of a conflict with Cat in the Hat Night at the Elementary school. I wanted to give you an update on what we have been doing Hat day was a success - raised $79.00, which brought our total (after the down payment of 1000 was sent to Mavericks and paid La Pine Park and Rec $225.00 for the Dance) of $138.61. We still need $1000.00 for Mavericks, $266 for the transportation, $150.00 for the Dance and $200 for presents. In the works we have two Bingo Nights (March 8th and March 29th) at the Moose - Will need 5 adult volunteers and 10 kids to help serve dinner. Please let me or Angie know if you can help and come play bingo if you can. $5.00 for dinner and $1.00 for bingo. The dance is set for April 2nd and last I heard we still need a DJ. Becky Ramirez is organizing this. (Thanks!!) If you have any leads, let us know. We will schedule another meeting soon and let you know the day! Please continue to collect any donations that could help with the Celebration!! Karen 541-815-3038 Angie 541-876-1002
