Country Music and Lots of Fun
Dateline: June 5, 2025
Saturday May 17 started out a cool, cloudy day with some light rain. By the start of the concert at 2 p.m. the weather improved and we were able to hold the outdoor events while the concert took place in the school gym. Corn hole boards were set up in the back of the gym for kids to play with.
On the right side of the school near the playground, members of the PTO set up a station for face painting, and making tie-dyed t-shirts.
In the back of the school on the patio, PTO members cooked burgers and hot dogs for attendees.
