It’s time to cheer on your football team! Today Link Crew is hosting the freshman tailgate party. Meet in the parking lot by the track at 4:30 for food and fun. The cost for food is $3.00. There will be free transportation to the game, but you will need your own ride home. Freshmen, this is your chance to support Arapahoe, see you there!

Hey Arapahoe, are you a wiz at Cad, Graphic Design, Architecture or building things? Do you love public speaking, digital photography, CO2 dragsters, building bridges, and friendly competitions? Then the TSA club is for you! Our first general membership meeting will be next Tuesday, Sept 16 after school in room E10. Come check out what this exciting national organization called "TSA" is all about! The state competition is in February this year, so let’s get an early jump on TSA! See Mr. McMullen for questions.

Seniors: The Boettcher Foundation is offering 5 presentations during October so you can learn about merit-based scholarships, including the Boettcher Scholarship Program. Boettcher Scholarships are full-ride merit scholarships for Colorado’s finest students. For more information on dates and times, check with your Post Grad Center or watch the lunch time screen in the cafeteria.

Each fall military recruiting officers request information from Littleton Public Schools for 11th and 12th grade students. If you do not want your information shared with the military, a military opt-out form needs to be completed by September 26, 2008. Please see Mrs. Oeinck in the Guidance Office for the opt-out form.

Please check the Lost and Found table in the Cafeteria for any items you are missing.




Athletics

All girls interested in playing golf next spring for the Arapahoe girls’ golf team, there will be a short meeting after school on Wednesday, Sept 17 in room S-11. For more information see Coach Wilson in the math office.

The Toms are selling 'spirit pops'. We will be selling gourmet lollipops with Arapahoe team spirit messages during both lunches in the cafeteria today. Many of you already know these long-lasting flavorful lollipops are a bargain at one for 75 cents or 2 for a dollar. Come support the team and enjoy a delicious treat.

Attention Warrior volleyball players; remember to be in the gym by 2:20 to set up nets for today’s game.
