To prepare for the upcoming Willy-lympics II, the creators asked students all around campus to take a mini-challenge with pair of glasses and a tiny basket.
Join Willy-Lympics by sending team submissions to Cade Zawacki at cazawacki@williston.com. The deadline for submissions is March 1.
Dear Williston,
I am happy to announce that the Community Service Club’s Blanket Drive is being extended for an additional week.
Please consider giving the gift of warmth to local homeless individuals that do not receive placement in a shelter.
If you have any extra blankets, please drop them off in our collection boxes located on the first floor of the Schoolhouse, outside of the Campus Store, or in the Middle School.
Boarders, if you are packing up for Spring Break and find any blankets that you might not need, please bring them by!
During these cold winter months, one blanket can truly change a life. Let’s come together as a community and help those that are less fortunate!
Thank you in advance for your participation!
Sincerely,
The Community Service Club
Hello Everyone,
On Tuesday, February 26th at the Athletic Center, the 12th annual Muji Muhammad 3-on-3 basketball tournament will be held. Play will begin at 2:00 p.m. Over the years, the “Muji” has been a competitive and fun tournament and a great way to bridge the gap between the winter sports season and spring break.
A little bit of history: Muji Muhammad was post-graduate student from Boston during the 2001-2002 school year, and he and Mr. Dietrich (who worked in the admissions office) brought the idea for a co-ed, 3-on-3 tournament to Williston from their previous school, Nobles. Even after Muji graduated, we kept the tournament going and named it in his honor. For years, Jeremy Deason, middle school teacher and boys’ basketball coach, ran the tournament. After he left Williston to become the athletic director at Stoneleigh Burnham a few years back, Mr. Kudla and I have had the pleasure of organizing this event.
Who can play? Anyone in the Williston community. Here are the rules: teams must be co-ed, and a team cannot have more than one varsity basketball player (male or female) or more than one adult on it.
Sign-ups: Email your team to me by 5:00 p.m. on Thursday, February 21st. Let me know which player is the Team Captain and know that we will be using a regulation girls’ basketball for the tourney. Mr. Kudla and I and a top-secret committee will meet in a top-secret location the night of February 21st to make up the tournament bracket.
T-Shirts! You can order your Muji 12 t-shirts during lunch (or on the English floor) this week. Half of the proceeds from t-shirt sales will help defray the costs of the baseball team’s 2014 spring break trip to Florida and the other half will be given to charity.
Questions: If you have any questions, please talk to me on campus or email me.
Looking forward to another great year. See you on February 26th!
All My Best,
Mr. Sawyer
Williston Community-
Today and tomorrow, Feb. 18 and 19, at lunch we are conducting our annual Daffodil Day appeal in support of the American Cancer Society. Daffodils are a sign of the coming of spring and a symbol of hope in the battle against cancer. We know that most members of our community have experienced loss of a friend or loved one as a result of this disease, and we hope that you will contribute to the efforts against cancer by purchasing a bouquet of daffodils ($10) that will be delivered to a friend or colleague on campus after the March break. You can also purchase a Gift of Hope ($25) and the American Cancer Society will deliver daffodils anonymously to a local individual who is struggling with cancer.
We will have order forms available at lunch, and you can pay through cash, check, or charge to your Williston account. Thanks for your consideration.
Peter, Meg, and Julia Valine
Completed application forms for Senior Projects are due by the end of the Academic Day on Wednesday, February 27.
Senior Project application forms are now available in my office. If you are interested in pursuing this opportunity to develop a previously established interest in a particular area of study, please come by my office to discuss it. This is NOT required of seniors, and in fact, only about 10 or 12 seniors in any particular year choose to take part in this program. For those who do, it is a significant commitment upon which graduation and our diploma will depend. If you have questions, please see me. These are typically individual projects, not group projects. Thanks!
Mr. Tuleja
Hello Williston!
The Community Service Club is hosting a blanket drive to collect new and used blankets to give to homeless individuals that do not receive placement in local homeless shelters. We have collection boxes on the first floor of the Schoolhouse, in the Campus Store, and in the Middle School through February 23rd, and we are going to have boxes in the gym tomorrow during Diversity Day.
During these cold winter months one blanket can truly change a life, so please consider bringing a blanket tomorrow (since you don’t have to bring your textbooks, etc.) and help make our community a better place.
Thanks!
Sincerely,
The Community Service Club
