The Seniors went to Topeka with Mr. Pugh and Mrs. Lowry to visit the capitol as well as have a little fun. The trip started at the world's largest ball of twine in Cawker City, the Eisenhower Museum in Abilene, Texas Roadhouse and bowling on Wednesday. The class went to the capitol Thursday morning and toured all the way to the top. Plenty of shopping, putt putt, go carts, and time in a van made for many memories.
The Long Island Middle School has started fundraising to replace the original stage curtains. If you are interested in contributing to this project, please contact the middle school at 785-854-7681 or Emily Lowry at elowry@nvhuskies.org.

Please let Mrs. Thalheim if you have any questions or need anything over the next few nights at the event center.
