Farm Happenings - Week of November 15

11/15/2021 9:15 am

The Turkey Trot is back this Saturday!  Mr. Napier has mapped out an exciting route and will start things off at 8:30am with fun stretches and then the racers are off.  Students, parents, relatives, and friends are all encouraged to run or walk as many laps as they feel like during this free, non-competitive event.

We are partnering up with our sister school, Johnson Elementary, to help restock their food pantry.  The food pantry at Johnson directly supports their Friday Backpack program.  This program sends food and snacks home over the weekend with students to ensure they are getting something to eat outside of the school setting.  

They specifically requested easy to open items or meals that require little preparation.  (Ravioli, spaghetti o’s, Mac & cheese, granola bars, applesauce, raisins, cereal, anything pre-packaged) There will be boxes available at the start of the course to collect all items for Johnson.  Let’s show them how amazing our Fox Families are!

We need a few volunteers to help setup, serve food/drinks, and cleanup after the event.  If interested please click on the link below to sign up.  Got any high school siblings needing volunteer hours?  Send them our way!

2021 Turkey Trot - Saturday, November 20th at 8:30am
