A Message From Major Kane
Sorry for the delay in the updates, but it has been a very busy few weeks for me. Court is crazy, and I had to go away to school for three days as well. I recertified, so I am a licensed Deputy in the Commonwealth for two more years. It isn't only you guys that go to school and get tested, we do too!
It is hard to believe, but Little League is winding down already. I did get to Ringtown, Frackville, and Ashland, but I never made it to Girardville. I am going to try to make as many All Star Games as I can. I enjoy the games, and my summer (and some DARE students as well) will end with a trip to the Little League World Series in Willimasport.
I just mailed out the info packets for this years DARE Representatives, and I am really excited about working with a new bunch of sixth graders. On the other hand, I really enjoyed working with last years group, and I will miss them. The chaperones said that they were one of the best behaved groups to ever go on a DARE trip.
I have been asked about the DARE Board, and how to get on it. The sign-ups are in January, and this year there will only be two openings. When you are in high school, listen to the announcements. The signups are always posted on the AD's door, watch for them.
I have picked the dates for the various DARE events next year. I will be posting them here soon, so stay tuned for important announcements. If you want to help at DARE events next year, sign up for Junior High TAT, they co-sponsor many of the DARE events.
I'm in the mood for a DARE question, but the prize will have to be mailed to you. When you submit your answer, please put your mailing address there as well and I will mail you your prize. Your address WILL NOT BE POSTED in the guestbook though.
Up for a tough question, see if you can answer this one.Find North Fourth Street in Ashland, and you will find that it is the only street made of ????? in the district. What is it made of?
If you know the answer, put it in the guestbook. The first six students who get this correct will get a certificate for a slice of pizza at Devito's in Ashland. Students in ANY GRADE can answer this question. Members of the DARE Student Advisory Board are not eligible to participate! Last week's answer: Loose lips sink ships. Congratulations to Shane McGrath, Jordan Marlow, Lacey Deeter, Rebecca Barnes, Ashley Schultz, Bubba Budwash, and Hailey Welker. Rebecca and Shane got the bonus correct as well.
"I got up one morning and couldn't find my socks, so I called Information. She said, "Hello, Information." I said, "I can't find my socks." She said, "They're behind the couch." And they were."
