Updated Information On Snowshoeing!


Hi All!

Our snowshoeing expedition is ago! I hate to do this to you guys but unfortunately we could only book the expedition Sunday, so I went ahead and did it. The Eichhorns have already confirmed they can attend Sunday, Seth, Jack, Mrs. Stanton and Mr. Rhoades did for Saturday, will this date change to Sunday work for you? Neil, you should also have the opportunity to go since this won't get in the way of your basketball trip now.

My father and I will also be attending. If those who said yes to Saturday can also go Sunday, that leaves us at 8, with 2 bringing their own equipment.

Please confirm if you're going and or renting shoes. Event Information is below.
