Staff Appreciation Chili Thanks
Thank you to our wonderful Arcadia community volunteers who contributed time, talent and delicious chili, corn bread and baked goods for our December luncheon. The teachers staff and administration were so appreciative of the warm winter sendoff before the break! This is a definite favorite appreciation event and we could not do it without our volunteers and their crockpots!

Our judges crowned a winner for the best chili - The Smithlin Family won the bragging rights!  

The generous Arcadia PTO gifted school supplies and distributed items collected from the "Snowstorm". We raffled off a "Holidate" cozy gift basket and Arcadia Merchandise. It was a perfect thank you to kick off the Chili Luncheon.  

In appreciation of our Volunteers for this event:

Amy Knighton - Barbara Backer - Barbara Halden - Britt Kimball - Carolyn Karbo - Carrie Hancock - Christine Smithlin - Dana Fuller - Dina Musselmann -- Elena Johnson - Gwen Miller - Heather Christensen - Heidi Richardson - Jean Reid - Jennifer Fox - Jessica Hubbard - Karen Treon - Kerri Flader - Kim Beler - Kristi Smith - Kyle Christensen - Laura Mitchell - Liz Ord - Lynna Soller - Mandi Schnepf - Melissa Eustice - Molly Pont-Brown - Monique Rogers - Nicki Ess - Nicole Zeff - Noel Black - Patricia Habak (DeHaan) - Rhonda Rush - Raquel Wigginton - Robin Scott - Rocio Daniggelis - Sonia Cordova - Stasia Hubbell - Susan Atkinson - Suzanne Cassano - Tia Bowling - Victoria Canada - Yvonne Scaramella
