Change in Venue location....

Hello Classmates,

Hope all well! We had to make a change in plan for the Birthdays Party venue. The Boiler could not accommodate our group. We have secured the Brooktrails Community Center in stead. The Party meal will be catered. It will be a combination of tri-tip beef, pork ribs, and chicken / salad / side dish. The price will be $30 at the door with proceeds going to the Scholarship fund.

A Class Birthdays Cake will be provided by our very own Tamme Tucker-Thompson (she promises not to make it three days early and drive it in from Utah and further swears it will be fresh and worthy of the world's greatest Class!) Dinner will meet at 5 PM and will seat at about 6 PM. The cake will be cut at about 8 PM. Should be a great time and we won't have to make the drive back and forth, to and from Redwood Valley.

I hope everyone is well and well on their way to eating Birthdays cake next weekend!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Luvya's, T

Special for The Willits News

Willits High School's annual homecoming celebration will kick off October 12.

The theme of this year's spirit week is "Sportscenter."

Each class picked a different athletic activity to base its float and spirit day on.

Freshmen will compete in "Monday Night Football" on Monday, sophomores will seek fame at "The Olympics" on Tuesday, juniors will experience "March Madness" on Wednesday, and seniors will participate in "The X Games" on Thursday.

Friday is Green-and-Gold Day, to pump spirit in to the school for the night's activities.
The community is invited to participate by attending the annual night rally on Thursday, October 15, where the grand marshal and Athlete's Choice winners will be announced, along with the Homecoming court.

The school week's finale is the homecoming football game on October 16, with Willits taking on Kelseyville in a league matchup.

During halftime, each class will parade a float reflecting its theme; winners of the float competition will be announced.

The homecoming court will be on display, cruising around the track in convertibles.

10 Days and counting!!!!.......

Dear Classmates,

Hello from your long-lost no-internet-connectioned septic tank installing Classmate. Please accept my apology for having dropped off of the radar screen for a couple weeks. I have an absence note written by my septic tank delivery driver and will be most happy to present it in person at the get-together for your review and turn it in to the School office filing with the Principal.

During my absence, I have been at the Oregon place putting in a septic tank. I figured it would take 2-3 days. "Fool" It took two weeks. Have you ever heard of "ground water"? I, previously, had very little experience with it. Also, I am now greatly more familiar with thin-wall pvc pipe. However, I am now back, safely, in the concrete jungle and am ready to return focus to the Event at hand. If and when I ever get caught up I will get the Minutes and Agenda out for Class Planning Meetings of 9/14, 9/21, and 9/28.

However, as we are, as of today, just two weeks out from the Homecoming/Birthday Party get-together, I will attach the final version of the Event Schedule to this message. I would attach my absence note but it is somewhat illegible in copied form due to the impacts of ground water. God bless you and God save the Wolverine.

T PS - I am trying to catch up on tons of e-mail. Therefore, please hold all septic tank questions for our first-person conversations at the Class Birthday Party. Seems a nice topic for comments exchanged over cake. LUVYA's, T
