Lord Vader the rabbit stopped by for a visit this week in Mr. Feltis’s homeroom!
The GSB PTO, in collaboration with Coastal Rivers Conservation trust, hosted a core of volunteers on May 6 for Campus Cleanup Day. Parents, teachers and administrators pitched in on many chores and tasks. The playground dragon got a fresh coat of paint in honor of its 10th birthday coming up in August. Volunteers battled bittersweet at the GSB backyard trailhead where there are plans to make sit spots in an amphitheater arrangement. The garden, along with its greenhouse, now has a critter fence to keep produce safe for harvest for Twin Villages Food Bank. Lastly, a big thank you to CRCT’s Brad Weigel who designed and built a “troll bridge” to help “the goats” cross from the garden to the ball field.
The GSB PTO is able to sponsor and organize Campus Cleanup Days because of the Mountain Film Festival. The community sponsor list includes: Coastal Rivers Conservation Trust, F. Lilly Design-Build, Friends of GSB, Reny’s, Mexicali Blues, The First National Bank, Barn Door Baking Co., Norumbega Oyster Company, Rising Tide Food Coop, Oxbow Brewery, Dr. Anne Jacobs, SeVende, and Shuck Station Raw Bar. GSB PTO encourages all community members to take advantage of the greenspace around the school.
