ONE day to go on the Thanksgiving countdown!!

Just a quick note to wish everyone a Happy Thanksgiving, and a relaxing 5 days!!!!!!

Lakeview students had a great time "preparing" for Thanksgiving while participating and viewing some SPECIAL activities today (Tues.; Nov. 20):

Four GREAT volleyball games between the faculty, Varsity Girls team, and the Varsity Boys football team.......................................................AND..................................................

we must mention the "Lakeview Derby" won by the Payne / Mixon race team. Who needs the Kentucky Derby when you have a race like we did today!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

On a final note, I would like to congratulate the 2007 Lakeview student/athletes who were selected to play on their respective basketball teams as freshmen in high school:

Downers South Girls: Kimmy G., Emily M., Monica M., Kaitlyn S., and Katie M.

Downers South Boys: Serg S., Vince G., and Matt Y.

I do not believe I have left anyone off this list, and if so, please excuse the oversight!!!!!!!

To all.....have a Happy Thanksgiving, and

"Play Hard"!!!!!!!
