Foundation

It was another busy month for our Lincoln Foundation. About 180 dads and daughters celebrated in style at the Masquerade-themed Daddy Daughter Dance. Many thanks to organizers Kathy Ranek, Gina Wells, and Rob Hilburn for another memorable event. Our entire student body showed true Lincoln spirit running in Jog-a-thon. Students should turn in Jog-a-thon donations by April 1, but additional contributions will be counted toward the Pool Party until May 14. Foundation thanks the entire Lincoln community for its support in this vital fundraiser. A dedicated person is needed to carry on the vision of Garden Club founder Sarah Morrison Hill, who will be leaving the leadership role next year.

Please join us at our next Foundation meeting on June 10 at 7pm in the school library.
