Club Dues and T-Shirt

Hello everyone,

     I just want to remind everyone that club dues are $5 a piece. We need the money if we want to continue to meet after school and compete against other schools. If you can't pay due to financial constraints, come to talk to Jaime, Mr. Koehler, Josh, or myself.

Thanks,
Kai Tinsley

P.S. remember that those who donate will receive a uniform alternative club T-shirt later this year. Stay tuned for the different design ideas.
