It’s that time of year again — the grass is growing, kids are playing ball and it’s time to take a break from Friday Night Rollerskating.  The PTSA recently concluded another fun year of Friday night skating sessions — thank you to the many volunteers who helped staff the evenings, and to those of you who came with your kids and enjoyed the fun.

We had lots of beginning skaters this year and are looking forward to picking up where we left off again in September!  Special thanks to Dawn Light, Kyle Ater and Bob Connell, who joined me at virtually all of the skate sessions to staff and run things.   Also, extra thanks to Orcas Kiwanis Club, for contributing to renovating our well-used skates.

If you’d like to help, there will be a skate repair party this Saturday, April 18th, from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. in the Old Gym. Bring a socket set, screwdriver or pliers, if you have them, and join the PTSA and Kiwanis Club as we refurbish all the skates we can.  If you have any questions, feel free to call me at 376-3930.

-Barb Skotte, PTSA President
