Congratulations 7TH & 8TH Graders! They won the Cream O’Weber Milk Cap Contest! Enjoy your breakfast party! You earned it! Great job guys! Please send in all of your Boxtops by Feb. 21st. It’s time for me to send them in to General Mills. Please keep collecting Boxtops, Tyson Labels, Nestle Pure Water Labels, Campbell’s Labels and Cream O’Weber Milk Caps and sending them in as you get them. We collect these all year, every year. Save them up during the summer, too! Please make sure that the UPC code is on your Campbell’s Labels – including Swanson’s, Franco-American, Prego, Spaghetti-O’s and Market Day. They won’t accept them without that part. On Pepperidge Farm products, the UPC is all you need to send in (it has a dotted line around it so you know where to cut). On all V-8 products, please send in the LID. We will begin a game using Nestle Pure Water Labels next week. We will finish the year with a Campbell’s Labels game. Start saving up now! We get to use the Campbell’s points to purchase playground equipment for next year, so please help out as much as you can! The more points we have, the more we can buy! Please remember to involve your friends, family, neighbors and co-workers! You will be amazed at how many rewards one child can bring in with a lot of help! Thank you for all you do!
We have a critical need in first grade for ski parents. It is difficult to handle the younger kids with very little parent participation. Please contact Mrs. Drake or the room mom if you can help solve this problem. Some suggestions have been
- Have one mom stay inside the lodge with younger siblings while another parent skis
- Split the class into two groups and only have one group at a time ski. This would be a shame for the children because it would mean that they would only get to ski one time per week.
Please help us solve this situation. Thank you.

One of the great strengths of Soldier Hollow is the opportunity for kids to nordic ski at a world-class facility.
But just having access is not enough. We need parents to help get kids ready with their gear and show them the joys of swishing along our beautiful, snow-covered trails.
Please lend a hand. It’s a fun way to fulfill your volunteer hours and great exercise for your children.
