From Auburn Air: Hey eagles, this week we are having our holiday week to get us all excited for the holiday break! Wednesday is ugly sock/sweater day, Thursday is Santa's workshop so make sure to wear all your holiday accessories. Friday is PJ Day.


We also sold candy grams on Monday and are still selling them today and Wednesday in the pit. If you have bought candy grams but haven't paid yet, you can pay during Wednesday's lunch outside the council room. They will be delivered on Thursday and Friday. All proceeds are going to families in need throughout our communities. Let's show our auburn spirit by participating in lots during this holiday season.


We have Hot Chocolate being sold every morning for one dollar so make sure to grab a cup on your way in, and also if you have any non-perishable food items please put them in the box outside of the council room.
