It looks like we will have less than ideal weather both Thursday and Friday this week. However, I have made no changes to the original schedule. Gym Jam will still take place on Thursday evening and the Photo Scavenger Hunt will still take place on Friday afternoon.
If the weather is not suitable on Friday for the scavenger hunt then we will have to postpone the event until a later date. If the scavenger hunt is cancelled on Friday I will call all families involved to let them know.
Thanks for your patience as we try to figure out and plan for our always unpredictable March weather!
