Brooks Together -- Wear your Pin with Pride
We are so happy to deliver your Brooks Together pin to you this weekend with our thanks! We hope you will wear it with pride. Do not fear if you have not received one yet -- this weekend marks the pivotal halfway point of our Brooks Together initiative. There is plenty of time to find Lisa Zopatti (at registration or at the hospitality tent) to make your gift and "get pinned" as you come together in support of this vital Brooks School resource. If you cannot join us, please click here to make your gift today!

Hospitality Tent, Brooks-Style
Everyone is invited to enjoy treats and drinks under the tent. Let's win those games while also showing our visitors some hospitality! Items can be dropped off in the morning in the dining hall or at the tent any time after 2 p.m. Contact Parent and Alumni Assistant Nicole Jackson to contribute.

Student Activities This Weekend

Afternoon Activities Reminder

Being Good Neighbors: Thanksgiving Drive
The chapel prefects are launching a drive to collect food for Lazarus House   and money for Puerto Rico. Monetary donations will go to Lawrence Firefighters United for Puerto Rico, a 501(c)3 local group supported by the firefighter's union and local leaders. Donation boxes for Puerto Rico will be in the School Store and in the hospitality tent during the games. Lazarus House boxes for food donations will be around campus. View the food list here.

Parents Committee's Ghostly Goodies  
Like baking? On Oct. 31, we treat our students, teachers and staff to Halloween treats. We're in need of volunteers who can bake or buy a goodie and drop it off. Please contact Claudia Kluchnik P'15, P'18 if you're interested in contributing. If you are a boarding parent, or you can't come in person, you can still contribute! There will also be raffle baskets. Would you like to help with these? Gift cards (Target, local restaurants, etc.) are wonderful and much appreciated. Contact Tara O'Shea P'18, P'21 for anything related to the baskets. Thank you!
