In this video, we are introduced to the newly formed Build A Spartan Foundation: A non-profit organization dedicated to the support of the Mid-Valley School District in the areas of Academics, Arts and Athletics. The Foundation funds innovative programs that offer Mid-Valley Students unique depth and breadth to their educational experience.As we work to build a substantial endowment, we understand the importance of educating the youth of our future.

And yes I did copy that right from the mission statement.

And yes I'm allowed to do that because--and this is one of those full disclosure kind of things-- my wife and I are on the board of directors.

President Donald Healey Jr. is the master of ceremonies at this event, which presented the prizes to the winners of our Logo contest. The students were asked to draw a Spartan that represented their grade level. There were three categories: Elementary, Secondary, and High School. The winning drawings will be incorporated into our logo. Each won $500 which was donated by an anonymous donor. And the winners were:

Chase Bilinski - Elementary
Vanessa Mancuso - Secondary
Nicole North-Mozda - High School

We sincerely thank them for sharing their talents and their efforts with us.

Look for a lot more from the Build A Spartan Foundation in the near future!

For the fourth year the Friends of Shannon Mcdonough have held Splashin' with Compassion. Held at Montage Mountain, this polar plunge raised over $10,000 for young adults with Cancer.

It's an amazing event run by amazing people, and a great time was had by all!!! Yes, even bythose who leaped into the icy water. And by icy I'm not kidding. It was right around 32F out, with a wind chill of 25F and flurries from time to time.

We're talking cold here folks!

List of those who took the plunge:

Just the Two of Us
Wishing on a Cure
Casandra, Steve, Brent, Bob, Jim, Chelar, Joannie, Kara, Kristine, Nicole and Sue
Clare, The Chickens, Capsizer, Uncle Pat and Friends
Team Rempeladi
Mari, Bob, A shark, and two guys
Debbie, Jeff, Another Shark, and a couple
No name, but it was for her birthday
Bob, FOSM, and Jack
Kanya and Kaylee
Spices
a couple of guys, a guy in a suit coat, a girl with fairy wings, and a girl in a pink bikini
Team Keys
Corey
Team Hooters

Note: I only had the vlog to go by, as something happened to the written list of participants. So this list is really sketchy. Next year I'm going to photograph the list used by the D.J.

For the 20th year, Christmas has come early to Olyphant, as we welcome Santa Claus on his Train! This year Santa is riding Steamtown's newly restored #26 Steam Locomotive, which was a special treat! There were gifts for the children and food for all ($1 for the adults, and children ate free) at the Legion Hall afterwards. The Christmas spirit was in the air, and a great time was had by all!

Another great time was had by all as over 500 kids attended this years Trunk or Treat at the Wargo Park and Sports Complex dressed in their Halloween finest. Volunteers registered their vehicles with the Olyphant Crime Watch, and handed out candy from their decorated trunks. It had all the fun of trick or treating in a safe, fun environment. Thanks again to everyone who made it possible!
