The Athletic Association currently has 3 vacant positions (President, Vice President, and Secretary), and will hold an important meeting on Wednesday, February 12th at 6pm to vote and fill those open spots. The current board of officers have worked hard to help with fund raising and increasing membership, but these positions need to be filled for us to continue to prosper. Please attend the meeting in Mr. Clapp’s room and consider being more active in your WLS Athletic Association.
Make plans!
