We always appreciate your support and really rely on it in order to do these fun incentive trips. I don't want to list names in case I forget anyone, but I do want to acknowledge that a lot of parents and community members stepped up to help me put this on this year. Along with my amazing High School volunteers, I needed parental help serving food, parental help cleaning up while I was directing the Pep Band, I had parents take dishes home to clean for me, community members donate pans of bars to sell, the list goes on and on. I feel like you all really stepped up to help lighten the load for me this year, and I can't thank you enough for it. We hope to see you at some of our upcoming concerts and......Go Pirates!
