I understand the disappointed the inevitably accompanies the cancellation of events. However, students safety is our number one priority and the anticipated weather and travel conditions require these events to be canceled. The 8th grade dance may be rescheduled. The basketball tournament will not.

SMS Weekly Update 2/24/14-3/1/14
Here are the upcoming SMS activities for this week:
We still need a volunteer to work the concession stand this Thursday for two boys basketball games. The first game begins at 4:00 so you would need to be there at 3:40. Also, we need concession workers and ticket takers for our home tournament on March 1st. The first shift in the concession stand is from 7:30-11:30 and the second shift if from 11:30-3:30. We could split the work into four two hour shifts as well. There is no way to guarantee that you will be able to watch the Spearfish games if you are working in the concession stand. Two ticket takers are needed from 7:30-10:30.
We will also need a dedicated group of volunteers for the Queen City Classic on March 28th, 29th, and 30th. These tournaments, especially the Queen City Classic, really help us with fundraising. Please help us finish the season strong.
