The Barstow Pillars program is not expensive, but it does require some monetary support. In order to fund another year of quality mentoring, and to add new students and mentors to the program, we are going to have a race of rubber duckies that are sponsored by students and community members racing for a summer entertainment prize. Community sponsors are making a donation with a chance to win a prize that will help them entertain young relatives or friends this summer. Students will do the same, and also have the opportunity to watch the rubber duckies ride the current of East Creek behind the school on Field Day.
Having watched a test run of ducks, the races will be short, and the results unpredictable. Ducks that ride the central current have a ver ydifferent trip than those that get pulled into churning currents or side traps on the river's edge, and this what will make it fun -rubber duckie survivor challenge!
Watch for information on the PTO listserv or in your child's backpack, and support mentoring today!
