Dig 🩷Pink🩷 Night was a huge success! The event raised nearly $2300 from t-shirt sales, concessions, donations, and an auction of the balls that middle school and high school players decorated. 🏐
The money will go to Breast Cancer Recovery in Dane County. This organization provides support and retreats to women in all stages of breast cancer so they can begin to heal emotionally.
This would not have been possible without the support from the #VanguardPride community! A huge thank you to our volleyball players, families, and fans for supporting this special night and reaching beyond our gym to do something that makes a big impact on the lives of others.
Ms. Baier's third grade class made paper airplanes to test air resistance during their forces and motion unit in science.

Tomorrow, October 16th, is Unity Day! Everyone is encouraged to wear orange.
What is Unity Day?
Unity Day was started by PACER’s National Bullying Prevention Center in October 2011. It is the lead campaign of National Bullying Prevention Month.
Why the color orange?
This color is described as warm and inviting. Also, it is commonly associated with safety, visibility, and protection.
