Please note this date has changed. When we originally planned our park day, Field Day had not yet been set. We moved our park day to the 15th to accommodate the school-wide Field Day. I am so sorry for the inconvenience. We still would like to have snacks at the park and walkers to join us. Please adjust the sign up sheet as needed.
