On Friday, October 2nd, high school students attended a field trip at the Renaissance Festival in Shakopee, Minnesota. Located on 150 acres, the festival has sixteen live stages, over 250 craft merchants and food stalls, and hundreds of roaming entertainers. Students participated in many activities, including volunteering for a magic show, riding elephants and camels, and cheering on a live jousting tournament. The Renaissance Festival provided students an opportunity to learn about many different aspects of world cultures, and provided them with a living connection between their studies of history and the real-life experience of history.

Please mark your calendars! The Hayward McDonald's is teaming up to fundraise for our Winter SkillsUSA Team!

Last week was National Fire Safety Week. Our very own Winter Area Fire Department presented to the Winter Elementary Students. Thank you, Mr. Larry, Mr. John, and Mr. Carl!

Tonight we played Lake Holcombe who was also undefeated in conference play. A coaches mistake had us out of sorts leading to a loss in the first set. The girls came back and won the next three. We have one more conference game in Bruce on Tuesday on our way to become Conference Champions. Let’s go Warriors!!

Last night, the Drama Club helped to accept some very heartfelt donations to the Kids' Change Drive. These donations have been made in memory of Ken Patenaude. Ken was a cornerstone in our small community. He passed away on September 18th at the age of 81. His service is this coming Saturday, and his family has arranged for donations to be made, in part, to the Kids' Change Drive in lieu of flowers.
This is such an amazing and humbling tribute for a man who worked so hard to make our community the very best it could be.

Updated Winter Halloween Events Information:

Winter High School Volleyball Parents' Night:

On Tuesday, the Middle School was able to go to Ashland to attend a Construction Career Fair. Students were able to talk with many employers with a wide variety of careers represented. Our students asked very thoughtful questions and heard information about what schooling is required for certain careers and the benefits offered! When we were leaving, many people told Mrs. Graf that they were very impressed with our students and how they interacted with the employers! Go Warriors!
