FOR CLUB NEWS
The Friends of Rachel Club has decided on some activities for the first semester. We will be collecting items for Manna Miniseries each month. The items will be collected in the library and cafeteria. Both faculty and students are participating .
Check out how many boxes we collected in September for Manna!!! Many thanks to Bedrock Community Church for assisting in our collection. October is toothpaste and toothbrushes. Collection boxes are located in the library and the cafeteria.
Students will be dividing into committees and will have different goals to accomplish in each group. Students can switch between the committees as they feel necessary. Our committees are the Welcoming Committee, Advertising Committee, Chain Link Committee, Community Service Committee, and the Scrapbooking Committee
Students also expressed an interest in having a float in the parade in December, in ringing the Salvation Army bell, volunteering at Manna and a variety of other activities.
