Wine for Wines—We Still Need More!
We need wine for Wines! Our auction this year will feature a wine toss, and we are hoping to collect around 75 bottles of wine to make this event fun and interesting, we currently have 30 (a big thanks to those who have already donated!). Wine donations of any value can be dropped off at the Wines office right after pickup (4pm) on March 17th or 24th. If you have any questions, or if you need alternative arrangements for your wine donation (we are happy to pick up donations from porches through March 25th), please contact Jen Hofmeister at 734.355.6625.
Science Olympiad is Coming!! Call for Coaches
We're preparing to send a Wines team to WESO. A global sign up for all Wines students will be sent out in approximately 2-weeks. However, in the meantime, we still need event coaches to commit. No experience necessary, we'll provide you with all the materials, supplies and in most cases a solid curriculum to follow. Practices are typically held for 1-hour, once per week for a maximum of 10-weeks until the competition on June 5th. The event coach picks the time/day and location that is most convenient for them; PLUS, their child/children get first choice of event participation. Please think about it and send an email to scienceowines@gmail.com with questions.
Wines Country Fair Re-Brand
As we have discussed often this year, the pandemic and our return to school has allowed us the opportunity to examine our Wines traditions and find ways to maintain our important traditions while also taking the opportunity to update them. After two years without our annual Country Fair, we have just the opportunity! This year, this important end of the year celebration will be back! Our hard-working committee has decided to re-brand the event this year and it will be called the "Wines Wildcats Outdoor ROAR!". We can expect all the fun and community building as we’ve had in the past with a few new twists! Please save the date of Friday May 20th which is slightly earlier than years past.
Please let me know if you have any questions.
David
