The 2nd Annual Color Run was a great way for families and friends to join in the fun together, have some great food and watch our girls play football. It was hot and humid afternoon, but the laughter and bonding made it all worthwhile. We all need to thank the Burdorf's and other volunteers for their effort to make this all come together.
The pep rally Monday evening would not have been entirely complete without Joe Nebel's auctioneering skills. Jason Shaffer took the floor alongside him to liven up the crowd and gave it a shot as well.
I have always loved a grand parade and this year's display made me quite proud to be part of the Shenandoah Community. There were students, friends, staff, and families of all ages, joining together showing their school pride.
Strike up the band!
It was great to see the bleachers full and sense the positive energy in the crowd at the football game. The Sweet Sound of Victory could be heard well into the evening. I am not sure who to credit for the video but thank you shenactivities on Instagram for posting.
The Homecoming Court was quite impressive. It was neat to see Roxy Denton and Devin Morelock were named Homecoming Queen and King. Ethan Daoust and Kynzlee Shaffer served as the first grade candidates.
It is now Saturday morning. I am enjoying my coffee and reflecting on the week. I am very thankful for the staff and volunteers who worked together to make this a great week. I am proud of our students and community who participated in the homecoming traditions and new activities. Shenandoah is a great place to be for all of these reasons and more. I am now left thinking about the vision for the future success of our school and community and what it will take to accomplish our goals. It will take time, persistence, commitment, collaboration, and more, but the investment will be worth the effort.
