Lynch Elementary students had a busy day June 3 as they demonstrated some sidewalk creativity, picked up some books for summer reading and -- for the fifth graders -- got in a little exercise.Students in all grades particiapted in the chalk drawing contest sponored by the Lapeer Rebeckahs, turning the west side of the school yard into a gallery of visual delights.
At the same time, the PTC sponosred Book Sale was set up under a tent at the front of the school, drawing both students and their parents to some fine book bargains.
The bright sunny day also gave the 5th graders another chance to put in some laps on the athletic field out back. Throughout the school year the older students have been improving their fitness through their running club.
The Book Sale was a big success, which contributed to the PTC's funds for speical projects at the school.This year's Walk-a-Thon in the fall raised more than $3,000 for the PTC funds, with the help of a long list of sponsores, including Kohl's, Columbiaville Flea Market, Hofman Shoes, Phil’s Tractor Repair, Delynn's Designs, Dinius Trucking, Farm House Family Eatery, Lee's Auto Repair, M3 Graphix, Tattoos At The Red Room, Use It Again Tools, Whispering Pines Adult Foster Care Home, Marz Food Service, Minkler Electric, Alaura's Portrait, Chilly Cow, Kaye Financial, Lapeer Sound Machine DJ Service, Mark Johnson Builder, Michaud Bookeeping, Outback Nails and Tanning, Performance Horses, Side Tracks Bar and Grill, Smith Refrigeration, Thorpe Animal Hospital, Wooden Nickel and Silver Screen.
