LEGACY'S 1ST ANNUAL SPRING FLING!
Legacy's 1st Annual Spring Fling is happening on Tuesday, May 18, 2021, from 4:30-6:30 pm! This event is for all Preschool, Young 5's and Kindergarten families, along with new families that are registered for one of these classes in the fall. This will be a fun night of fellowship with other LCS families! We will have food trucks (Beecher's Pretzels and Kona Ice), inflatables and more! You won't want to miss it! Please RSVP to Kim Zwyghuizen to let us know that you are coming - kimz@legacycs.org or 616-455-3860. We hope to see you there!
Volunteers Needed for our Spring Fling! LCS parents or high school students...would you be willing to give an hour of your time to help at our Spring Fling? We need several volunteers to run and monitor the inflatables. If you are willing and able, please contact Kim Zwyghuizen - kimz@legacycs.org.
ELEMENTARY FIELD DAY 2021
Elementary Field Day 2021 will be held on Tuesday, May 25, and we will need volunteers to help run the different events that will take place, as well as classroom leaders to lead the classes around to their different events. We need your energy! Activities will begin after lunch, at approximately 12:30 pm. We anticipate finishing up with events around 2:30 pm, at which point we will celebrate the end of a great afternoon by enjoying popsicles on the playground. We are asking volunteers to show up between 12:15-12:30. Stations will already be set up and ready to go, but we would appreciate help taking stations down at the conclusion of the events. If you have any questions, feel free to email Mrs. Veldhouse at sveldhouse@legacycs.org. You can find the volunteer slots here! Thanks in advance! We are so excited to be able to have Field Day this year!!
