Dear Falcons,
Fifth Grade sincerely
appreciated your presence at our basketball game!
The proceeds from the
basketball game are going to the first overnight trip for many of us! This trip
is to Eagle Bluff Learning Center come year’s end, and we’re eternally grateful
for the money raised at the game for the trip. We had nearly 500 people in
attendance. With the ticket proceeds alone, we raised over a thousand dollars. (Combined with Scrip orders and the used book sale, we raised over $50 per student!)
I, along with over 60 other 5th
graders, am looking forward to a trip to the nature center with the no food
waste challenge, various activities such as a night hike and frog catching, and
especially the ropes course. This is all
in thanks to you Falcons who attended our 5th grade vs. Staff
basketball game!
Your presence at our intense
game was greatly appreciated, since your encouraging words and signs cheered us
on in times where the staff withheld the ball, and urged us to start up chants
encouraging those on the court to play hard. Whenever we were dripping
perspiration or losing hope of winning, all we had to do was look at our
faithful adult and younger Falcons to regain hope!
We thank you all for your
presence, Falcons, and hope for the best for next year’s basketball game! I
wonder if Staff will win for once…
Sincerely,
Amy (Folwell 5th Grader)
