THANK YOU SO MUCH PATRIOT SENIORS FOR HELPING OUT WITH SPIRIT WEEK!!!!!
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
ENJOY YOUR WEEKEND AND ENJOY JL MANN!!!!

I Love You All In Christ,

Christian L.

HELLO TO EVERYONE!!!!!!!!!

Today, I will begin one of the "BIGGEST" projects that I have ever done on this blog. To thank so many people name by name in one day is hard! But, I will try to thank everyone who gave money to Spirit Week on this blog. I mean I will type every name name at JL Mann because you all rock and you helped us win Spirit Week. This will take a long time so I will do as much as I can in a short period of time. I hope that you have enjoyed my myspace and I hope you enjoy this ongoing project!!!!

* I saw Christopher W. After mass and I haven't seen him since middle school. (He's a proud Red Raider, by the way!) But he was really cool about us winning Spirit Week. He, actually, felt better that we won and they didn't! I still can't believe I raised over $4,000 in one week!! Especially $3,500 in one day!!!!!! I AM STILL IN SUCH AWE!!!!!!!!

*Here are the Spirit Week poll results: The question was: What was the most memorable Spirit Week event?

Football Game Against Greenville/Pre Game Party 60%
Pep Rally/ Boogie For Charity 20%
Spirit Week Dance 20%
Date Auction or other activity 0%

*Try our new poll: "How would you rate President Bush's presidency so far?" below!
