Dear Parents,
I want to personally thank all of the parents who joined us for the Late Night Leopards campout. And, a huge thank you to our campout team for this awesome event! Even though the weather was a little crazy, we definitely had a fun time and created some great memories! I am truly blessed to be a small part of this amazing community. Thank you for your continued generosity and support. I hope that you have a happy and safe Easter weekend.
As always, if you have any questions or concerns, please feel free to contact me.
