All School Cleaning Day
The Animas High School PAC is sponsoring an End-of-Summer All School Cleaning Day on Saturday August 25th from 8:30 AM -12:30 PM. The school has been transformed this summer and now the drywall dust has to go. With 30 - 40 volunteers, we can polish the school and have it ready for staff and students to start the year off right. Please come to help if you can! Even if you are only able to stay for one hour, your contribution will be greatly appreciated. Please RSVP to Michelle Swanson at 970-729-0204 0r at stimberworks@gmail.com
