I have sent home an information/permission slip for your child to attend a FREE Speed Camp on Sat., March 20th from 9-10:30 a.m.  This camp is being held at the Hall of Fame Chiropractic/Fitness Center located behind the Red Lobster parking lot.  This is a full-time Fitness Center with an indoor track and many perks for proper training.  I would urge you to allow your child the opportunity to participate if at all possible.  Please return this slip to school on Thurs., March 18th.  I have to forward the names of the students participating on Saturday to the Sports Center by Friday.

If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to call me at 304-672-2498.  Leave a message if I am unable to answer immediately.  I will return your call as soon as possible.  Again, it is FREE.

See you on Friday at 5 p.m.
