Thanks to all for a wonderfully successful first Waterfall Glen Xtreme 10! A sense of community fosters within the entire school community the development of a cohesive social environment, an ‘esprit de corps.’ It promotes a sense of belonging and identity that can provide the motivation for successful involvement with our schools. In addition to
all the terrific events sponsored by our PTC, there are two events
recently conducted at CCSD 180 that best exemplify this concept
or goal.
One is the exemplary and well-organized International Fair held
last spring. The other is the First Annual Waterfall Glen Xtreme
10 mile race that was held on August 14 by the CCSD 180 Foundation
for Excellence. All Foundation members, volunteers,
parents, staff, contributors and vendors are to be congratulated
for an outstanding
event. I also know that all associated with the race would agree
that the leadership, talents, and hard work of race coordinator
Mr. John Gervase assured a highly successful, inaugural race. Over
270 runners
participated
in the race, and we anticipate that number to double in the coming
year. Of course, those who benefit most are the children of CCSD
180, whose education will be enhanced through generous Foundation
grants! It was an event to remember! Over
100 photos from our first race-day follow. Please click on a numbered

DuPage Forest Preserve, and Argonne National Laboratory are to

180, whose education will be enhanced through generous Foundation
projects! It was an event to remember! Thanks to all

August 12, 2006! |
CCSD
180 Foundation "Lottery" Fundraiser I want to thank all who purchased tickets to support the CCSD 180 Foundation’s latest fundraiser. Using the Illinois pick three evening lottery numbers throughout October, the Foundation awarded $75 to the winning numbers each day and also awarded $500 to the person with the winning numbers on October 31. That anonymous winner donated the $500 back to the Foundation. THANK YOU! The fundraiser will help fund Foundation projects that will benefit the children of CCSD 180. Special thanks to Mrs. Gina Stephens for her efforts with this endeavor. Thank you for your support of our children and our Foundation. --Dr. Frank Rink, Superintendent Click here for a listing of Foundation Lottery Winners for October 2005! |
