Week of May 19

Don’t forget to send 3 pack of pretzels for Field Day.

FAMILY LEGACY MISSIONS INTERNATIONAL invites you to participate in a SHOE DRIVE FOR ORPHANS to benefit the children of the Tree of Life Children’s Village in Zambia, Africa. Help us put shoes on the children’s feet by donating NEW or GENTLY USED running shoes or church shoes in children’s size 4 through adult size 10. Boxes have been placed around Old Union to collect the shoes. Thank you in advance for making a difference in the lives of these precious children. If you have any questions, please feel free to contact Patty Gibson at patricia.gibson@southlakecarroll.edu.

All library books are due May 22.
Please turn in waiver forms for Field Day. (at Dragon Stadium! May 23)
Hot lunch will not be served on May 23…  If you want a deli bag for your child, please return the lunch note that was sent home.  Otherwise, plan on packing a lunch that day.  Thank you!
