Spanish Club plans on having its first “market day” this month and is currently in need of donations for our store. We have very limited storage space and are looking for very small items for students to buy & sell in the following stores:

- SCHOOL SUPPLY STORE

- JEWELRY STORE (looking to get rid of any of any costume jewely your girl has acquired from B-day parties??)

- TOY STORE – tiny stuffed animals, party/fast food place giveaways…

- SPORTING GOODS STORE (again…those little balls from B-day party prize bags will work perfectly)

- PHARMACY- does anyone have any small sample toiletries from a hotel?? (mini shampoo, toothpaste etc.)

If you have any items that you would like to part with that fall into any of the above categories, we would greatly appreciate it!! Please leave your items in the SPANISH CLUB DONATION BOX located in the PTSA room. For more information please contact Jennifer Lucero, jimandjen2000@comcast.net

Mile Club
Marathon Correction- The Seattle Children’s Kids Marathon 2010 is on SATURDAY, November 27th at 10:00 AM at the Seattle Center. Kids begin their final 1.2 miles from the corner of 5th and Harrison. The Seattle Children’s Kids Marathon is structured to allow children — kindergarten through eighth grade — to complete a full 26.2 mile marathon at a rate that is fun and safe for their growing bodies “one mile at a time.” It also encourages them to read 13 books and perform 13 do rights (good deeds).

The Kids Victory Recovery Area is located in the Seattle Center Exhibition Hall. Kids will receive their space blanket and water as they cross the finish line in Memorial Stadium and will then proceed through the secured finisher chute to the Victory Recovery area where they will receive their finisher shirts and their Goody Bag containing their finisher certificate and medal, as well as refreshments and post event fun with Radio Disney.
