Tristan Jensen, a senior at Woonsocket is conducting a volleyball camp for all Kindergarten to 6th grade girls. The camp will be taking place on November 5th, 2022 in Woonsocket. Kindergarten- 3rd grade will be from 8:00 am- 10:00 am. 4th grade- 6th grade will be from 10:00 am - 12:00. The cost is $30 (includes a T-shirt). The rest of the funds will be donated.  Sign-up sheets are due back to the office by October 13th.

3rd and 4th grade boys are interested in playing basketball this year. I will gladly volunteer my time and coach these boys this year. Right now, I just want to get a number on about how many boys would be interested in playing and put together a couple games whether they are just scrimmages or contact other schools and get some games there. It is a good time to get the kids started learning the fundamentals of the game and I will be more than happy to help them do that.

If your son wants to play this year, please send me a text that includes his name, both parents’ names and phone numbers.

Thank you,

Kim Eggleston- 605-461-8403
