March 26...starting to feel like Spring

Spectaculathon on left.....on right, 'Dear Tony' the competitive show....moving on!!

PA Baseball players ran youth clinic the past two weekends. 

Hello, this week's notes are short and simple. For more details, please refer to last week's notes. It's really worth a second look, there was a lot there!!

Congrats to Dave Gabaree, Lisa Leopold ( PAML music teacher who directed a Brother's Grimish show) and all the PA thespians for putting on two greats shows, a drama festival and filling the building with tons of laughter and good vibes. The shows were the non-competitive 'The Brothers Grimm Spectaculathon' and 'Dear Tony'. 'Dear Tony' advanced to states which will be in a few weeks. It will be available for your viewing on April 3 during TA and Flex. Aidan Lodge, Nikki Crouse, and Rachel Zmick all earned individual acting awards.
