The Advanced PE class is sponsoring the 2nd Annual SpikeBall Tournament to benefit
the downtown YMCA. Our students get to
go the downtown YMCA for free whenever they want with the class. This is our
way to give back to thank them and have some fun. If each team donated $10 we’d have a nice
donation to make to the programs at the YMCA that we and the community get to
use! Please respond to this survey by
Wednesday, April 12 to sign up for the tournament! https://www.surveymonkey.com/r/VGVHV23
