Croswell-Lexington Middle School

Hello Pioneer Families! On behalf of the Croswell Lexington Athletic Boosters, I would like to take this opportunity to invite you all to take a minute and sign up for one concession stand opportunity that you will find in the link provided below. Without your help we would be unable to fulfill the financial requests for our athletic programs throughout the year. Last year alone, we provided nearly $30,000 in funding requests to the various athletic teams. We ask you to take the time, click on the link below that will direct you to the website where you can select an event to assist in the concession stands. Just a few hours of your time will have a direct impact on the student athletes of our district. https://www.signupgenius.com/?go=c.SignUpSearch&eid=0FCAC0DBFDC4F767&cs=09B5BAAE8FCD8B177B7B64035BC19BC9

On Saturday, August 13th 12-3pm at the Swinging Bridge Park in Croswell, Croswell Wesleyan Church is hosting the Back to School Expo. This is a family oriented back to school community outreach event designed to meet the back to school needs of students and families in and around our community and offer a day of community fun for all. Students can bring their supply lists and “shop” for free school supplies. Students must be present to receive supplies. Local salons and barber shops will have several stylists on-site that will be offering free back to school haircuts to all students as well. Dr. Gormley and McKenzie Health have also partnered with us to offer free sports physicals to our middle and high school students on site. We will have physical forms available at the event. They must be signed by a parent in order for the student to be seen. We have lots of family fun in store as well. J&N Party Tent and Rentals will be bringing bounce houses for the kids. The firemen will be bringing down their firetruck for the kids to explore. We will have a picnic lunch sponsored by Jeff’s Market and our local fireman. CL Spirit will be hosting some fun tumbling activities during the event as well, and we will have raffles and prize give-aways throughout the day. We want to thank all of our community sponsors who have signed up thus far. We want this to be an event that the whole community can participate in and bring their families too. For more information about the event, you can also contact the church office at 810-679-3881. All are welcome, and we hope to see you there! See less — at Croswell Swinging Bridge.
