Service Hour Opportunity: Lori Lane is coordinating a wheelchair basketball tournament on Saturday, December 14 and Sunday, December 15, at Madonna ProActive. She is looking for some volunteers to either help run the scoreboard, shot clock and just some various jobs such as hospitality. Volunteers can have as many hours as they would like. The tournament runs 7:45 am-6:00 pm on Saturday and 7:45 am -12:00 pm on Sunday. This is a National Wheelchair Basketball Association sanctioned event at D2 level, so competition should be very good. If you are interested, please email Lori Lane at llane@madonna.org.
Congratulations to our One-Act students who competed at Districts on Tuesday, December 3rd. The team received 6th place and felt they competed very well. Maggie Broening, Timothy Backhus and Hannah Vander Top received the Judges Choice Acting Award.
