The Fort Calhoun Girls set up a bake sale during the Corporate Cycling Challenge on Sunday August 16th. The cyclists were traveling 42 miles round trip, the Fort Calhoun City Park was their half way mark. We offered them a variety of goods from muffins, homemade granola bars, cookies and fruit. They came hungry and helped us triple our sales from last year! We also had several members of the community stop by for a Sunday morning treat.
The Before & After School Program provides a setting for children to be engaged in a comfortable, yet stimulating environment while balancing learning and fun!

Each year, the 3rd and 4th graders volunteer to clean up their school yard for EARTH DAY. They were asked to bring rakes, brooms, dust pans, and gloves from home and Mr. Neumann supplied us with the large black bags to fill. The weather was perfect for the classes to work outdoors. They all worked very hard and the result made them all very proud. There was a large pile of full black bags that were picked up by Mrs. Kulus which she will use for her compost pile. Thank you 3rd and 4th graders for making our school beautiful. Happy Earth Day!!
