What is up, Elevate Family!
I hope that you all are having a great week!!
I have an exciting update for all of you about Serve the Shore on July 14th and 15th. I met with the Project Leader for our service project and found out that we will be building a wheelchair ramp for a World War 2 veteran the day before his 99th birthday. Along with that update, I also got all the release forms for this project together from them. So if your student would like to join, I need you and your student to fill out the documents ASAP. That way, we can get T-Shirt sizes for all of our students!
Your student must attend the service project on July 14th to go with us to the beach on July 15th.
The form is at the bottom of this post.
After you fill out the Google Form for this event, you will receive an e-mail with an additional form from the organization. From what they told me when we met to talk about the project, they were trying to get a tv crew to highlight this project for the local news; that is the reason for the final form.
There is no cost for this event other than the money they would want to bring for any additional snacks at Wawa on July 14th and lunch on July 15th when we are at OC for our Beach day. Your students are responsible for their own spending money these days.
Dress Code for the Beach: This is for all students. Please be sure to wear a modest bathing suit when we go to the beach. (Please bring your own beach towel and sunscreen for this day.)
