Good Morning Panther Families,

1.  Luv Michael - Thank you for making our first fundraiser a wonderful success! It was an honor to partner with the Luv Michael community! Congratulations to our top fundraiser, Rylee Martin, and Mason Burgess, who was an extremely close second place.  Together, they raised over 1/3 of the total donation amount!  Our goal was to help swimmers and families with fees, service hours and to learn about the Luv Michael community. A certificate for 10 service hours was sent to the registered email address of the swimmer from Luv Michael for all donations of $100 or more. Please let me know if this has not been received.  Half of all proceeds raised (up to $450) are available to each individual that received donations.  Below is a message from Luv Michael-
‘’Congratulations to Starr's Mill High School Swim Team!! You shared the Luv and raised a total of $6,459. That means your team and our team each receive $3,229.50!!! You and your team did a fantastic job on this fundraiser!!! In just 14 days, 14 team members earned a total of 140 community service hours while promoting autism acceptance. Your team had an average raise of $431. Your hard work created meaningful paid employment for the Luv Michael Team and helped bring messages of understanding, compassion, Luv, and allyship toward the autism community to 86 donors from 28 cities in 13 states and 3 countries!
From the bottom of our hearts, thank you for all of your support! Mark, Dr. Lisa, Kim, Maria, Heather, Diane, Clare, and the Luv Michael Team“

2.  Meet Timers - we will need all hands on deck this Friday for our meet with Fayette County and Sandy Creek!  We would like to be fully prepared to staff all volunteer positions (16) just in case the other schools are unable to provide volunteers.

3. Team Store Re-Opened- We have re-opened the team store on the website for just three days if you would like to do some last minute shopping.  Deadline is this Thursday, November 30, midnight.  Orders should be ready no later than December 15 for pick up.  Items available: flannel pants, 1/4 zip gray fleece and white shirt and long sleeve team t-shirt.  Please reply to me (Rosie) with any questions about items or orders.
