— from Eric Webb —
The 60 year old gym at Orcas Public School would like to welcome a new score table which will be used for MS and HS basketball games.
Diego Lago, Isabella Douglas, Maddox Davis, and Logan Jones donated $600 earned from a bake sale at the Island Market. Thanks to all these families’ moms who helped bake the goods.
And thanks to the Island Market for letting the families sell the baked goods in front of the store.
And a big thanks goes to the PTSA for matching and donating another $600 towards the table.
The kids hope this is only the start of needed improvements to the Old Gym.
And a huge thanks to all who bought the baked goods.

Way to go, 6th graders! And to my recollection, this isn’t the first fundraiser you have been involved with.
David — all 6th grade classes are involved with raising money for their trip to the 6th grade trip to Nature Bridge. I can’t speak to anything else — but there are a lot of student/parent bake sales to raise $$ for that trip.
