Come One, Come All

There was a crowd of people gathering in the gym here on campus last night. One of the main events for the evening was a dessert auction. This was another fund raiser to help raise money for field trips. As you can see all the desserts looked wonderful. (YUM, YUM!!!) The auctioneer did a great job of trying to sell the goodies while getting the highest price possible. Ruth was able to get in on the action by helping to display each item being bid on. It was fun to see everyone getting into the spirit of the auction to help raise money for the school. I would like to say it was a success but for those walking home with no dessert in their hand it might have been a sad walk home. (smile)





























There were a couple of musical performances by students from the academy and one little girl did an awesome hula hoop number. However the other main event of the evening was a mini musical called "Stone Soup". The 1st-8th graders have been working very hard for several month on this mini musical. Last night they presented it to family and friends. Titus played the part of a traveler. Anyone who knows how much he loves walking sticks can see his part was perfect for him. The kids did a great job and it was a lot of fun watching them. There were two ladies heading up this play and working with the children and they put in many hours outside of official play practice to see this whole thing come together. But all their work and effort as well as the childrens' paid off and it was an outstanding performance!
