To
the editor:
I
more or less grew up in Lincoln. Been down here in Florida almost
16 years; still miss being up there. Since my daughter-in-law
e-mailed the address, I click on to daily news about three times a
week. I really enjoy reading the happenings. Keep up the good
work. I would like to see what high school basketball is doing
this year. Thank you for the write-ups and Lincoln Daily News.

Thanks
from Washington-Monroe School

Dear Editor,
We would like to
extend our thanks to several people who made our recent "Jump
Rope for Heart" event at Washington-Monroe Elementary School
such a success. First and foremost are the jumpers, the students
who collected pledges for the American Heart Association and
jumped nearly non-stop at the event. Second, we thank our parent
volunteers: Bev Wunderlin, Joni Hundreiser and Amy Gordon who
helped with check-in, counting money, and even jumped a few times!
Other volunteer "rope-twirlers" were our principal,
Becky Cecil, and Washington-Monroe alum Gregg Alexander who spoke
to the students about goal-setting and keeping a healthy heart.
Next, our school families and the community are thanked for the
very generous contributions that we received.
This year's event,
the third for Washington-Monroe, raised over $1200 for the
American Heart Association, surpassing our goal of $1000. We are
very proud of the effort put forth by our students.
We also must thank
the folks at Lincoln Daily News (.com). The students were
so excited to see the media at their event and to know that they
were contributing to a newsworthy cause. The following school day,
students accessed lincolndailynews.com via individual
computers in our computer lab. Seeing the pride on their faces, to
not only read about something they had done, but to also see
pictures, was indescribable! How incredibly appropriate that it
happened during District #27's week of focusing on the character
trait "Self - Esteem." Again, thank you to Natalie
Jeckel, Sam Redding, and the others at lincolndailynews.com for
letting the students at Washington-Monroe feel so important, and
for letting those in the community know about one POSITIVE event
that has happened at a local school. There are great things
happening every day within all our schools. We're thrilled someone
in the media took the time to notice.
Thanks to all,
Debbie Pettit
