We will be working hard this morning packing up food for pick-up today and tomorrow for our Free Summer Food Program!!! If you have pre-registered please be sure to be at pick-up. We plan, order, and pack enough for all those pre-registered and some extras for walk-ups. We do not want to see any of it go to waste. If you have pre-registered and are no longer planning to pick-up or will not be able to pick up a certain week, please email: amulks@ridgeview19.org
For those signed up for the boys and girls youth basketball camp on 6-11 & 6-12 please drop off and pick up your child at doors 5 or 6. These are the doors on the back side of the South Gym near the bus lane. Doors will be opened at 10:45 am tomorrow and Thursday.
Looking forward to a great 2 days of camp with each of you!
Thanks
Coach Kennedy
