Heads or Tails

2/23/2018

What if we told you that you could win a four night trip to an amazing ranch in Wyoming for only $25?  It's true!

Newly added to our 2018 Give to Grow event is the popular Heads or Tails auction game.

What is the Heads or Tails auction game?
  1. When it’s time, the auctioneer will ask all Heads and Tails participants to stand up.   Each participant will have purchased a chance to participate for $25 earlier in the evening.  
  2. Participants select either “heads” or “tails” by putting their hands on their heads—or their tails!
  3. The auctioneer flips a coin and announces whether the coin came up heads or tails. Those participants whose choice matches the coin flip get to stay standing—everyone else sits down.
  4. The auctioneer continues asking participants to select “heads” or “tails,” then flipping the coin, eliminating more players until only a handful are left.
  5. This continues until only one player is left standing. This is the raffle winner!

The winner of the Heads or Tails game will receive a 4 night stay at the A Bar A Ranch!  Along the banks of the North Platte River, in the heart of southern Wyoming’s Medicine Bow Mountains, lies the A Bar A Ranch. Established in 1922, it is one of the oldest guest ranches in the country. It is also one of the largest, with nearly 100,000 acres for guests and staff to explore.  This is a magical place, where generations of families and friends create summer memories together. 

Don't wait!  Purchase your tickets to Give to Grow.​

Dance Invades PE Classes

2/16/2018

Shari Polis came in to all Kindergarten-5th grade PE classes this month to teach dance as part of Fitness February. Shari taught a hip hop dance mix, “Basketball,” to the school. Ask your kids to show you the hip hop moves they learned in dance  (“top rocks,” “six step”)! Everyone performed the dance at the talent show earlier this month.  Both videos shown are of one of the third grade classes during their class.

​It was a fun week of 
dance in PE! A big thank you Shari and to Mr. B, who especially loved the dance as basketball is his favorite sport!
