 Tailgating 101
 •        Bring your car (if it has a tailgate, even better!)
•         Bring a small table and a couple of chairs (table decorations are good!)
•         Bring snacks and drinks to put on your small table (finger foods work best).
•         Share your snacks and drinks if you like (no adult beverages, please- LPS District Policy!).
•         Show your Lion Pride and wear purple and gold! (Go Littleton!)
•         Maybe some purple and gold balloons for your car, to help make things festive!

Hello everyone! First, a big thanks to everyone who attended the very fun (albeit rainy) Back-to-School FUNraiser at Glenmoor on Thursday! Our focus this year for our PTO fundraising is the new STEM lab that will be in place soon at Littleton. Dr. Oaks reviewed her plan for the year, and with any luck, we will have some fabulous new computers up and running as soon as possible. If you did not have a chance to attend the fundraiser, but would like to make a contribution to PTO for our new lab, please contact Wendy Burbage at wlb1963@msn.com, or mail your check to LHS, attn. FUNraiser.  We are on our way to attaining our goal of $9000 for some new state-of-the-art Apple computers, but a few more donations would be wonderful. OR, if you’d like to support our after-prom for junior and senior students in April, you may also want to consider a donation to this special event. Just use the memo portion on your check to specify your donation preference. Any and all donations are appreciated! It adds up, and it all benefits our LHS students. All donations are tax deductible.
