Attention Parents of Juniors:  Each year the parents of the Junior Class are responsible for the breaking down of the Senior Party decorations.  We need many more volunteers for the morning of June 14 to quickly help clear the Commons Area.  The proper dismantling and storing of the reusable decorations is the first step toward a successful 2009 Class Party. The tear-down is an excellent way to see how the party is put together while generating conversations about next year’s event.   Volunteer yourself today. Volunteer your friends tomorrow. Send your contact information to: Wade Janson Eastview2009@gmail.com, 952-891-2290 or Paul Kujawa pkujawa@frontiernet.net, 952-431-2119.  (Emails preferred)

Junior parents:  On Monday, May 5, the senior parents invited you to your 2009 Senior Party Kick Off Meeting.  While several people attended and volunteered for positions, we did not receive volunteers to Chair the 2009 Senior Party.  Please consider chairing, co-chairing or tri-chairing this position for your students.  It would be great if you could have a chair in place before the end of the school year. This year, we had three chairs and it worked out great.  You are welcome to reach out to any of us if you have questions.  Sandy Sauve ssauve@Charter.net  612-834-1605, Corrine Jensen tysley@aol.com 952-432-2464 or Jackie Belden-Terlinde Jacqueline.Belden-Terlinde@spps.org.

The Boys Varsity Golf team secured a third place finish in the conference yesterday at Inverwood shooting a 311. Johnny Greene continued his solid play with a 74. Junior Blake Brunn played steady golf firing a 77. Other contributing scores included Senior Captain Tyler Krob and senior Danny Gengler with 80’s. Wish them luck as they prepare for a tough battle at Sections on Monday.
