What are you doing this summer? Did I tell you I love your picture in the Cal Rec sports page? Yes, Climate Change is real? Trust me, it does not hurt to ask if you really want to go to the prom? Has that truck been in the mud yet? Not sure that outfit matches, but I love the style? Is it legal to have this much fun on a Friday? While Spring Day is a lot about the games and activities, it is so much more about the social connection and conversation. Hopefully you all have a chance to cover these issues and more tomorrow at Spring Day!

 

And now, for the final Joke of the Week from Mr. Camelio: Last week I asked Matt Stark what the best way was to carve wood. He replied, “Whittle by whittle.” 😊
