Skating Party
THURSDAY, MARCH 7, 5:30 a.m. - 8:30 p.m.
SAS has been holding skating parties at the Lynwood Sport Center for over four decades now. Come join the tradition! Kids of all ages are invited; there are accommodations for even the youngest skaters. Admission is $6, and skate rentals are $2.50 (they even have learn-to-skate skates for the little ones, and "walkers" on wheels are available for $4 rental fee). Parents/guardians are not required to skate. Every student does need to be accompanied by a responsible adult who will sign them in and out and remain on the premises for the duration of the event. This means that if you are unable to stay, another adult (18 or over) must be willing to take responsibility for your child in your absence. Our March Skating Party is being hosted by the 6th Grade Parents, and there are still a couple of volunteer spots remaining for someone who needs hours by the end of the month.
The response to our Practice Preschool has been overwhelming, and our initial session has already filled. However, we are still accepting applicants, and we will contact parents to let them know when we will be able to welcome their little ones. So if you or someone you know has a child who will be three years old by September 1, we invite you to fill out the interest form, and we will be in touch: http://bit.ly/SASPracticePreschool
Join Us On Lenten Fridays at 2:00 p.m.
