Mr. McCain is in need of two ticket takes for Saturday’s games with Warner. These people do not have to be school employees. Payment will be one girls and one boys district pass. You would need to be at the school by 2:45 p.m. on Saturday. If interested, please contact Mr. McCain at tim.mccain@k12.sd.us or 605-495-4183.
 
Due to the sub-zero temperatures forecasted for Monday, boys’ basketball practice at Sanborn Central has been rescheduled from 9:30 a.m. to 12:00 noon (after play practice).
 
From Tracy Moody: We are desperately looking for about 8 volunteers to help with the concession stand during the JV and Varsity games with Warner on Saturday starting at 3:30 p.m. If we have enough volunteers, it would make it easier for everyone to see part of the game. If willing to help during one or both of the games, please contact Tracy Moody at tracy.moody@k12.sd.us or 605-495-4183. Thanks so much!!
