you so desire!
*Please have your child “check-in” with me over at the ball throw area. (This is my way of
taking attendance. I also enjoy hearing how your child’s day is going.)

*If you can, stay for the school relay (final event) and cheer Zion on!

weather clothes, hat, stocking hat, athletic shoes, snow boots, fuzzy bunny slippers…who
