Over the past couple weeks several articles have appeared in the Camas Post Record and the Columbian newspapers featuring Camas schools. One of the articles highlighted learning opportunities provided for our students because of the amazing support from the Camas community. Funding provided by the Camas Education Foundation, PTA's, as well as business and private donations, provided elementary students at Helen Baller and Prune Hill the unique opportunity to host an artist-in-residence. Students at Baller worked on tiles that will become a permanent fixture at the new Helen Baller scheduled to open this fall. At Prune Hill the young artists were taught how to paint with acrylics. The Penguins finished projects will become part of a collage that will be auctioned off at the Camas Education Foundation auction this fall.
The Annual Camas Mother's Day Plant and Garden Fair will be held on May 9th in beautiful downtown Camas. If you are looking for a little exercise before the Plant Fair and also want to support a good cause, come down to Doc Harris Stadium Saturday morning at 7:30 and take part in the Romp Around the Lake. The"Romp" is being organized by three Camas seniors as part of their Senior Project. There is a ten dollar entry fee and all proceeds will go to the O Ambassador and Free the Children Foundations to help build a school in East Africa. I hope to see you there!
