Our Mission is Fishin’ 

WLS Lawn Mowing – We are looking for volunteers to help mow the grass here at WLS. With all of the rain and warmer temperatures, the grass is really starting to take off. If you can volunteer, please give your name to Tim Gerig (493-4298) or Mr. Hoyer at school (632-5493).

Mid Quarter Grades – Mid quarter reports were sent home on Tuesday, April 28^th. If you have any concerns about your child’s grades, please contact their teacher to set up a conference.

Track Team – We have gotten a few track meets in now, and some of our students are doing well. Weather permitting, we will have two meets next week, one on Monday and one on Thursday. They are both at the Concordia Seminary and will begin about 4:15. Come out and watch our students compete.

Zion Confirmation – Two of our WLS students will be confirmed at Christ Lutheran Church on Sunday, May 3^rd. They are Allison Messmann and Morgan Gerig. We congratulate you on all of the hard work and study that you have put into preparing for this big day in your lives.

Tin Caps – The TIN CAPS baseball game is this coming Wednesday, May 6^th.  We will be leaving WLS Wednesday morning at 9:45 a.m.  Students will eat a snack, provided by the WLS lunch program, before we leave.  Please help your students dress according to the weather.  Please have warm jackets, blankets, and rain gear if the weather calls for it.  Each student will receive a voucher for a free hot dog, drink, and a bag of chips.  You may want to send a little extra money for snacks or souvenirs.  Parent drivers will receive a note next week with more specific parking information.  One of the wonderful things about this special AR reward day is that it is totally free for our children.  What a blessing!  We look forward to a great experience in a fabulous new stadium.  Let’s Play BALL!

Attention Zion 8^th Graders -  The next youth gathering will be May 17^th, at Eric & Marsha Armbruster’s house.  This Saturday, May 2, we are planning on mulching the church.  Be there by 8:00 am to help out!

Concordia Theological Seminary Playscape Project – After a few years of planning, a group from the seminary is going to work putting up an area-wide playground. They are looking for volunteers to help with the actual construction. The dates they are looking for help are May 5^th - 9^th. Anyone who might be interested in working on this project a little or a lot can contact the Playscape Coordinator at 260-452-2223.

WLS Rummage Sale -  Next week, Friday, May 8^th, and Saturday, May 9^th, we will be holding our annual Rummage Sale.  This sale helps to benefit our Pre-School Kaitlin Pyle Scholarship fund.  This is also the weekend for the city-wide garage sales here in Woodburn.  We are now taking items.  They can be brought in and put on the stage in the gym.
