Dig out your ugliest sweaters and accessories for the game. This is for parents, players, coaches, and fans!!!!! See you all then!

Support The Blackhawks!!  The Boys and Girls Blackhawk Basketball Teams are asking for some “Snack” Donations to use on their bus rides to daily practices.  The snacks would be split between the two schools to give the players a little bit of energy heading to practice.  Some popular items in the past are:  rice krispy treats, cookies, granola/energy bars, jerky, crackers, etc. There are 35 girls and 25 boys out for basketball this year.  Donations can be brought to our season-opening games vs. SBA on Saturday Dec. 10.  There will be a drop-off room available and will be divided up after the games.  Thanks for your awesome support of these kids’ efforts!   Go Blackhawks!!

FFA
Fruit Sales will be arriving on Monday, December 12th 

Winterguard
The Winterguard schedule has been adjusted….There will be no practice on December 11th, Practice has been set for 5:45 on Monday, December 12th in Woonsocket (Tentative); and Monday, January 9th at SC 5:45.

HELP WANTED……. We have a fantastic Winterguard Organization which practices several times a week.  These young ladies put many hours of hard work into this program, unfortunately our competitions are all in Minneapolis.  We are estimating the expense per participant (travel, costume, drill, equipment, circuit membership fee) at about $500 per student.   The members plan on doing some fund raising, but past experience has proven that we will fall short.  We have some students who have been attending practices faithfully, but realize financially they won’t be able to afford it.  At this time we are hoping to find sponsors – not to just hand money over, but to provide these members with jobs to earn their way.   If you are willing to help us out – please contact Mr. Kroeger at brett.kroeger@k12.sd.us

Community
The Artesian Area WWTS Christmas program will be Wednesday, Dec. 14th at 6:30 pm at Artesian First Lutheran Church.  The program titled “Too-oo-oo-oo Busy” will find the group searching for the true meaning of Christmas.  There will also a birthday celebration honoring Jesus birthday.  Lunch and fellowship will follow the program.  Everyone is welcome to attend.

The Woonsocket Community Club has again invited us to participate in their Christmas Caring Tree project.  If you know of a family who may be in need of a little extra help this year, please let Mary Ackman know by calling the school (495-4183) or e-mailing her at mary.ackman@k12.sd.us . The deadline for form submittal is December 14th to Mary.  First National Bank in Woonsocket has the tree with the “Wish Cards” for you to pick up.  Donations can be taken to First National Bank, in Woonsocket, and given to a teller there or bring to Mary at Sanborn Central. 

Mark your calendar for Wednesday, December 7th – the next Sanborn County Food Give Away!!!!  Begins at 5:00pm at the Woonsocket Community Center and will go as long as there is still food!

"When Christmas bells are swinging above the fields of snow,
We hear sweet voices ringing from lands of long ago,
And  etched on vacant places,
Are half-forgotten faces,
Of friends we used to cherish, and loves we used to know."
-- Ella Wheeler Wilcox
