Stoneman Douglas Spin Camp
Yesterday’s SPIN with Stoneman Douglas was truly something special—and it’s all because of YOU.
To our incredible students: thank you for being so terrific with all the kids who came to spend the day with us. I watched all day as you interacted with them giving them a great day. You became many of their heros yesterday by being ecxellent role models.
To all the parents that helped out: thank you for your efforts yesterday. The event went off perfectly due to your organization and attention to details for the event. Can't thank you enough.
Lastly a HUGE thanks to Jennifer Smith for leading the charge on this event. You were a rock star in making everything happen! Thank you so much!
SPIN is about everything good in the color guard activity and yesterday was a perfect example of what happens when all of that comes together. We get very few chances to step out of the competition setting so when something like SPIN happens its great to see what we are all about.
