The Hunt Safe Course is a 10 hour course that has to be
completed in order to receive a card. Parents
or guardians are requested to bring your child to the course on Tuesday and
complete an enrollment sheet at that time. This course is for anyone turning 12
by the end of the year. If the student is not 12 at the end of this course, the
card will be held until the student is 12. This is a busy time of the year, but
the 10 hours is a short time investment for the rest of their life for the
enjoyment of the out of doors. This course is to instruct on safety, not
marksmanship. Shotguns will be furnished if needed. No firearms or ammunition
will be brought to the class by any student. They will be instructed as to when
they may bring a firearm for inspection and usage. All classroom materials will
be furnished at no cost to the student are parent. Adults are welcomed to

SANBORN CENTRAL HEART & SOLE TEAM:
Last year Sanborn Central participated in the Heart &
Sole Cancer Walk, which is held in June each year in Mitchell. We would again
like to sell/collect luminaries to support this good cause. Money raised from
this event is used to help support area families who have been affected by
cancer. This money goes directly to those families to help defray costs of
medicine, travel to treatments, motels, dining while away from home, and so
many other items these families need help with during the difficult time of
cancer treatments. It is a way for all of us to show our support in their
journey. We would like to walk for ALL in our communities that have been
touched by cancer.
You are invited to participate by purchasing luminaries
either In Honor or In Memory of individuals who have battled this disease. This
year’s honorary chairs are familiar to many of you: Kathy Zoss and Al Ridgeway.
If you plan on being at the walk on Friday, June 21 and wish to bring a sign
supporting someone close to you, PLEASE feel free to bring it ready to display.
The official school banner will be that of “Sanborn Central has Heart and
Sole.” There will be a campsite ready to
go that night.
We would like all luminary purchases to be in by Tuesday,
April 30. Luminaries/money may be sent to school and given to Mary Ackman, or
sent directly to Kelly Selland at 24129 395th Ave, Letcher SD 57359. There will
also be a table set up at the Spring Concert on April 29 if you wish to
purchase them then. Luminaries are $5.00 each and can be purchased for that
price until Thursday, June 20. HOWEVER, in order to count towards the Sanborn
Central team registration, they need to be returned by April 30.
You may also visit www.mitchellheartandsole.com for
further information regarding the walk, run or to download an assistance form.
Luminary Order Forms:

ackmanmb@santel.net or 605-248-2446 or
