All of the little things that the people that make up Pueble have done to make SC as special as it is is truly appreciated by those in our group.

So come celebrate all your efforts to make SC into the amazing group it has become at the fifth annual SC FFD on Saturday following the Run/Walk.

Jack Drankoff Preble Community 5k
Good morning. Today I would like to answer some serious questions that have been asked about the Jack Drankoff Preble Community 5k.
1) Can we still sign up? Yes you can still sign up for this event. Entry forms are in the main office or download off of the Preble Website. The cost is $12 if you sign up today but starting tomorrow it goes up to $15 .
2) Can fall athletes sign up? Cross country runners can’t run because of WIAA rules. The WIAA does not have any rules against any other athlete running in an event like this. You may want to check with your coach but I guarantee you will not be violating WIAA rules.
3) What awards are there at this event? Well everyone gets a t-shirt and the top 3 male and top 3 female high school runners get trophies. Since the cross country can’t compete you might be asking yourself how fast do the rest of the high school runners complete this event. Well if you want to get an idea of times from last year the 3rd place female in high school last year was 26:25 and male was 22:53. These times would have won a trophy.
4) When is the run? It is on Saturday September 20th and it starts at 9AM. That is just 1 week from Saturday. You will want to arrive by at least 8:30 that morning so you can pick up your race number in the small gym.
5) How can I be part of this event if I don’t want to walk or run? If you would like to volunteer to work for the event please see MR. Greenawald in room 242. We need responsible students to help on the race day.

Yearbook
There will be a meeting of students interested in joining the yearbook staff next Monday after school in Room 205. If you cannot attend Monday’s meeting, there will be a repeat of the meeting after school on Tuesday in Room 205.

The 2008 yearbooks have been mailed to the homes of those who ordered and paid for a book. If you ordered the book and do not receive one by this Saturday, please see Mrs. Sutton in Room 205 beginning Monday.

Jack Drankoff Preble Community 5K
Ah, the last couple of days has brought the feel of fall to Green Bay. That brings our thoughts to homecoming week. This gives you a great chance for you to show school spirit and get involved in many fun activities. The first activity that you can get involved in is the Jack Drankoff Preble Community 5k run walk. This is the annual kick off event for homecoming week. This year we want to show everyone in the city that our school has the best school spirit in the city by getting an incredible amount of students and staff involved. You may be thinking that you are not a runner. That’s no problem, just come and walk it with your friends. If you sign up you will get a t- shirt, a fun morning with your Preble community, the good feeling that you helped raise money for sting cancer, and if you are fast enough you may even walk away with one of the 6 trophies for the high school division. Sign up forms are in the main office or on the Preble web site. If you sign up before this Thursday Sept 11 you get the cheaper rate of only $12. The event is on Saturday September 20th.
