As a part of the "Class Acts for Kenya" fundraiser, there will be a bake sale in the Cafeteria the night of the show.  If you would be willing to donate a baked good to this sale, please let Liz Roos know.  Baked goods can either be sent to school with your child to be held in the office or dropped off at school before the show.  

West El. second grader Grace Welsh and her team Monarchs On A Mission will be entering their 3rd "HIKE FOR HOPE" on Sunday, October 14th, 2012.  Grace and her team would like to see a few more familiar faces as they walk the 5 mile loop through Andover this fall to benefit Capernaum Place (Lazarus House Ministries), which helps homeless families transition to permanent homes.  These pint sized community activists are calling on their fellow students to pull together their own teams over the summer, fundraise and make a difference in their community.

A team leader's goal is to recruit at least five team members and set a minimum team fundraising goal of $1000. The team leader also stays in regular contact with each team member and encourages them all the way to the finish line on the day of the hike. For more information on the "HIKE FOR HOPE" or starting your own team contact
