Thought for the Day: Fanatic – A person who is enthused about something in which you have no interest.

1. There will be a meeting for all boys interested in playing baseball next spring, on Thursday, October 6 at 11:15 in the cafeteria.

2. You may never think of yourself as the answer to someone’s prayer, but every time you donate blood, you are! Every time you donate, you help save a person’s life – a mother, a child, a brother. There is no bigger difference you can make in a person’s life than giving them life itself. The hour it takes you to give blood could even save up to three lives. The fall blood drive is Friday, October 14th.

3. Eat lunch in the cafeteria during Homecoming Week and if the timer goes off, your name will be entered into the basket drawing. The drawing will be Wednesday.

4. Picture re-takes have been re-scheduled to October 13th, not the 6th.

5. The Dixon Pride store will be open starting this week on Tuesdays and Thursdays during both lunches and Friday after school. Come get your purple and white gear! There are purple sunglasses for $5, purple beads 2 for $1, shorts for girls and guys, new bags, and purple and white Mohawk hair. Come take a look at the new fleece jackets for winter. Any questions see Mrs. Guenther or Mr. Tennyson.
