HoCo Swim Meet will Donate to AfterProms  2018 Howard County Invitational Swim Meet on Sunday, April 15th at Howard Community College.  More information on Facebook, simply search for Howard County Invitational Swim Meet.

      For each county high school participating, the Clippers will donate money towards that school’s After-Prom party.  Additional money will be given for first, second, and third places.  Past winners tend to have higher participation, not necessarily the best swimmers.  

      The Team Captains representing your high school are To Be Determined.  Any student interested in becoming a Team Captain can contact us directly at howardcoinvitationalswimmeet@gmail.com.

FYI – Students can list being a Team Captain on college and job applications.  

 

After Prom Planning is Underway! After Prom is an event held at the Glenwood Community Center from 11:30 p.m. – 3:30 a.m. after the May 12 Prom.  The MRHS PTSA plans this fun-filled event to provide a safe place for kids to continue the fun after the Prom.  It’s a great way to get involved and meet some other parents.  There will be many volunteer roles (i.e. setting up games, checking kids in, helping to run activities, serving food . . . and many more)!   We will be sending out a volunteer signup link soon. We can only be successful if we have plenty of volunteers.  Many more details to come!  AfterProm contact person is Karen Chase @ 410.531.9818 or kmchase24@comcast.net
