**JUMP ROPE FOR HEART**

Jump rope is under way and every year we ask for donation to the American Heart Association.  Packets have been sent home and although they are a little later this year we are still going to have our event.  Those snow/ice days really put a damper on our Jump Rope for Heart timeline.  I will be sending out McGuire's donation the week of March 4th, so I ask that all donations be turned in by Friday, March 1st.

Jump Rope for Heart Challenges Results

Our jump rope event is coming to a close.  I am accepting donations for the American Heart Association until this Friday, March 1st.  I will always take donations after that date, I just prefer to send all of the donations out at the same time.
