YIPEE!!!

Alright, so Riverbend and Courtland had a spirit links contest. For those of you who are deprived, this is where everyone donates money and whichever school has thee most links get bragging rights and such.

We were donating this year for 16 year old boy that has Paraneoplastic Syndrome, (a rare cancer which attacks the immune and nervous systems-according to Mr. Keith). He has to have two 40 thousand dollar sugeries and has to pay about 750 dollars a week for physical therapy.

The grades in the latin classes competed and the seniors won (with the sophomores in a close second). All in all, RHS collected something around 800 dollars.

Of course we beat Courtland who only collected about as much as our Seniors, $330. WE have like, a gagillion spirit links in the Latin room, it is a very impressing sight.

Not like any of you care about this, I just got bored, and thought I would post something.

Actually I care a lot. I'm very proud of you and your Lation class Toni.

That's very nice of you all to donate your time and money to someone who needs a lot of (time and) money.
