Any FFA member wanting to show in the FFA division at the State Fair must contact Mr. Gross for his signature on their forms ASAP.  The deadline to postmark your registration is August 15th.  Those who were not members last year but are planning on being members this year that would like to show may also show.  However, they must let Mr. Gross know to get their papers signed and so that he can let the State Office know to add a new member.  The FFA State Fair book is uploaded to the school's website in the Community folder in the "Forms and Publications" tab or by following this link: https://drive.google.com/file/d/0BxqWDgwTHOqeQkNQLUJCMjZHX1E/edit?usp=sharing Keep in mind, to be an FFA member you MUST be enrolled in at least 1 semester of an agriculture course for the upcoming 2014-2015 school year.  Email Mr. Gross at shane.gross@k12.sd.us if you have any questions.


Mr. McCain would like to remind all 7th and 10th graders (and anyone else that needs one or wants one) that they must have a physical completed before they can participate. Forms are available on the website in the Athletic Folder under the Google Drive or follow this link: https://drive.google.com/file/d/0BxqWDgwTHOqeWUN0TXhYb0x2cHc/edit?usp=sharing
Back-to-School Night will be here before we know it.  Please put Monday, August 18th, on your calendar now.  The open house and free meal will be from 5:30 - 7:00pm.


Have you checked out our Google Drive lately? Go to the school web site www.sanborncentral.com click on the Forms & Documents Tab for all the information a person needs.  As information comes in we add it to the folders.  We have recently added the soccer schedule, the volleyball practice schedule, the football practice and game schedules, marching band schedules, and the list will continue to grow.  The HS/MS class schedules are in the schedule folder - your letters will be coming next week.  Feel free to look them over - but remember they are subject to change!  While there be sure to check out the school calendar - it’s packed with information!


Debey Senska Fund Raisers:
              Debey has been so quick to bless my family in a time of need and I am sure she has done that for many others over the years! I want to give back to Debey by hosting an online fundraiser Pampered Chef party for her. The Pampered Chef will donate up to 15% of the sales, plus an extra $3 for every cooking, catalog or fundraiser show that is booked with me from this event. I will also donate up to 15% of the sales from this event. As a team, we can bless Debey financially with up to 30% of the sales and help her continue her journey towards full health :-) Here is a link to the fundraiser page.  http://new.pamperedchef.com/pws/kitchenofjo/host-landing/8880280747163Search for me as the host of the fundraiser show. For the orders to count, it must be entered under Debey's show.  Please remember to arrange to have your order shipped to you directly if you do not live in the Artesian area. I will deliver the orders that are located within 50 miles of Artesian.  Message me if you have any questions.  Thanks so much for helping Debey A Senska!!  Jo Oberg
