Yearbook Picture HELP
PLEASE SEND US YOUR PHOTOS
The yearbook staff is looking for HIGH QUALITY, non-blurry candid photos. While we love to see your beautiful, posed faces, we much prefer pictures of you doing something, rather than you looking and smiling directly at the camera.
This yearbook is unique in that it will be created by the whole school. Thank you in advance for being a part of this historic year. Don’t forget to reserve your copy at www.jostensyearbooks.com!
Sincerely,
The Gallantry Yearbook Staff

German Corner
Visiting “Memory Lane Antiques” on Main Street during their holiday open house has become a tradition since my family moved to Windsor. The shop owners go all out decorating the store in a series of fun themes that capture the eye and wonder of the shopper. Christmas ornaments abound and, in typical German fashion, you are sure to find “the pickle” there. What is the pickle? The pickle ornament is special to German families. After decorating the tree, German parents hide a pickle ornament among the boughs of the tree. When German children see the tree decorated for the first time, they hunt for the hidden ornament knowing that the child that finds “the pickle” will be the lucky one to receive an extra little gift from St. Nicholas. Start a new tradition! When decorating your tree this year don’t forget to include a pickle ornament. St. Nicholas will be good to you! You are, after all, living in “Volga Deutsch” country. Ich wünsche ihnen eine schöne Weinachtszeit!
