We are looking forward to a successful sale, and many of you have volunteered for set-up and clean-up. However, we do not yet have adequate volunteers for the actual sale. Volunteers are urgently needed for Saturday from 12-4, and Sunday from 10-12, and 12-3. Please immediately email your availability to janinebhuber@hotmail.com if you can help. Thank You!

Tonight we host our annual Klingenstein Lecture Series event. Local author and former Barnesville parent Melanie Choukas-Bradley will be speaking tonight at 7:00 in our Media Center. Melanie will be discussing the natural history and geology of the Sugarloaf region as well as the flora of Washington. There will be a slide presentation and book signing. This event is free and open to the public. Our students had a wonderful time learning from her yesterday – now it’s your turn! Referral Program     Over the summer, we kicked off our first Referral Campaign.  3 new families benefited from the program and so we're starting another campaign this year!  Next week, you'll receive new referral cards to hand out to friends and families that you know.  If an applicant uses the card, they will receive an application fee waiver and the person listed on the card will qualify to receive up to $1,000!!!  Start thinking of all families that would be a great addition to the Barnesville Community! Grandparents Day     The Grandparents Day Chairs are still looking for volunteers!  If you are interested in helping out, please contact Lynn Brown (lynnday01@aol.com) or Frances Parsons (fayparsons@aol.com).  ALS Fundraiser     A sad bit of news…former Barnesville teacher Beth Silva’s mother-in-law has recently been diagnosed with ALS.
