November Field Trip

November's Field trip will be November 8, from 1-3 pm. We'll be visiting the radio station next to Super One in Marquette (by the bowling alley). They will talk about sales (how they make money), show us the music room and studio, and talk about management. Also, Walt Lindala (news guy) will be there to talk about the news.  They will also have a couple of kids record the weather!  If interested, please RSVP to marquettechums@yahoo.com.  You must RSVP by November 6 in order to attend.

November Mom's-Only Meeting

November's Mom's-only meeting will be Tuesday, November 13 at 6:30 pm. Same place- email if you need directions.  Back by popular demand, we'll be doing a "home school white elephant gift" game. So wrap and bring something you no longer want or need. It can be something as simple as a pencil to a book, etc.   Everyone will get to go home with something. Hope you can join us!

Hat Trick Farm field trip

Many have asked if the field trip for tomorrow is still on due to possible rain. The field trip is still on- we plan on having it rain or shine! If everyone comes, it will be our biggest turnout yet, so should be lots of fun!  Make sure to bundle up as it will be chilly and perhaps wet!  See you there. =)
