Staff Appreciation Luncheon

Wednesday, November 3

   

     Hello, Lenski Volunteers - it's time for the Fall Staff Appreciation Luncheon!  We still have many spots to fill - primarily within the main course category.  So, if you are able to cook a batch of chili, please consider signing up today.  For more information and/or to sign-up, please click here.  We look forward to providing a wonderful lunch for our much-appreciated staff!
Fundraising Opportunities 
   
     We need your help!  The Solicitation Team is doing it's best, but times are tough and donations to our events are down.  Lenski has two important fundraisers coming up. We rely on creative and collaborative auction items to ensure their financial success.  Everyone has something to offer!  Please give this careful consideration.   

What we need most:   

Talents - gardening, cooking, coaching, sewing, tutoring, organizing, shadowing a professional 
Hotel Stays - (doesn't need to be the Ritz!)
Organized Outings - golf, tennis, happy hour, tea, progressive dinners, theatre
     Our sincere thanks to those of you who have already donated!!!
Ladies' Luncheon - November 16th.  Deadline for donations:  November 5th. 
Auction - February 25th.  Deadline for donations:  December 17th.

Lobby Sales tomorrow for King Soopers Reloadable Cards

Red Ribbon Week

October 25-29

  

     Red Ribbon week will be celebrated at Lenski from October 25-29.   This year's theme is, "Too Smart to Start!"  As part of the celebration, Student Leadership has something planned each day that week.  

Thanking our Troops Campaign

November 10-19

  

     In celebration of Veterans Day and Thanksgiving, Lenski has adopted service men and women in Afghanistan.  During our 9-day campaign, students will have the opportunity to show them our Lenski Superstar spirit by thanking these troops for their service to our country. They'd love to hear from students and families, especially during the holidays.  To find out more about how you and your student(s) can contribute or to see a complete list of items you can donate, click here

A Big Thank You to the Littleton Stride Supporters & Coordinators

      
     What a great day for a walk!

     Thank you to the community service team for an amazing job!  Special thanks to Theresa Kovar, Deb Sabato and Lisa Myers.

     Peabody had the highest % of participants.  Lenski and Wilder tied for 2nd place!  We saw Lenski everywhere.

     It was great to see everyone out there and our families enjoying a great community building event.  Thank you for spending your Sunday morning with us.

Thank You to our 5th Grade Girl Scout Troop      

    

     A special thank you goes out to Abby G, Nicole W., Audrey D., Jessica P., Katie C., Lauren B., Lindsey V., Maddie G., Madison W., Megan L., and Izzy B.  They worked hard last Thursday afternoon cleaning up the school's flower bed, putting down some fresh mulch and planting some tulip bulbs.  Thanks, girls!
