General Notes:
Our last fundraiser for the Middle School field trip will be the Fish Fry this Friday, March 12. Many thanks to all of those who helped out on the first dinner! We were a little short-handed, however, and we'd like to make certain that there are enough helpers this week. Please sign up on the sheet in the office if you are able to help.
Plan on joining us for a delightful evening on Thursday, March 18th for the Middle School presentation of Macbeth, A Musical Comedy. We have summarized Shakespeare's Macbeth to bring everyone up to speed. We are looking forward to a Renaissance dinner theater experience with you!
A big thank you to the crew who served donuts after mass: Michael Krammer and family at the 8:00 am mass, as well as Aurora Ostrom and family at the 10:30 am mass.
