The following activities are planned. All activities, but the new school tours, will take place right in the school. Haven't been here for awhile? It will come right back to you the minute you walk through the door, we promise! Your printed program, which you will receive in your registration package, will be your guide to weekend events. Please note that Saturday supper will be at 6:00 pm instead of 5:00 pm

Are you wishing you could be here but are unable to be? Let us know and we will add your name to the "WIsh I Could Be There" wall.
