Tall Tales Ticket Contest Director's Event

Students in Great American Tall Tales who sell 30 or more tickets will be invited to attend the Tall Tales Director's Event!

Date: Saturday, Nov. 17th

Time: 9:00am - 3:00pm

What: Life on the Oregon Trail

Our Director's Event will be a day in the life of a "pioneer in the wilderness" as they set out on the Oregon Trail.  We'll begin with a hearty pancake breakfast, then head over to Fort Vancouver where we'll participate in Oregon Trail reenactments like "hunting buffalo" (director hide & seek), "forging the great river" (team competitions), and "traveling in covered wagons" (obstacle course).  After successfully arriving at the end of the Trail, we'll go to the Williams' house to watch the dvd of the show and warm up with chili and cornbread.  

Additional details will be sent via email to those invited to attend once the ticket contest is complete.  

SELL TICKETS!!!!!  We can't wait to "weave stories tall and true" with YOU!

Operation CHRISTMAS CHILD

Operation Christmas Child spreads the joy of Christmas to millions of children in over 100 countries.  Each CYT class can be a part of spreading the love of Christ by putting together a (1 or more!) "shoe box" filled with small gifts for a needy child.

CYT's High School Youth Pursuing Excellence (HYPE) are coordinating efforts in each CYT area and encouraging classes to collect items and fill a shoe box that HYPE will collect and Operation Christmas Child will deliver to a child in need.

Each class will decide if they want to create a box for a girl or boy and the age range of the child.  Students then can bring items for the box such as:

Pens

Pencils

Sharpeners

Crayons

Coloring books

Picture books

Stickers

Small cars

Balls

Dolls

Yo-yos

Jump ropes

Slinky

Toothpaste

Toothbrush

Bar soap

Boxes will be picked up from classes on Tuesday, November 6th.
