ALS Ice Bucket Challenge
Calling all students, student groups and staff! In honor of Pattie Hamlin, Nokomis High School, has nominated Taylorville High School to participate in the ALS Ice Bucket Challenge. If we
can all raise $500 or more, Mr. Hutchison has agreed to represent Taylorville High School in the ALS Ice Bucket Challenge and be drenched with ice water from
the biggest bucket we can find at THS! We have until Thursday May 9th to raise $500 or more. All donations will go towards research to help find a cure for ALS and also to help pay for assistive devices and technology that people with ALS use daily. Checks may be made payable to the STL ALS Association or cash in an envelope marked ALS Ice Bucket Challenge may both be dropped off at the THS main office. Let’s raise some money to fight this terrible disease and cool Mr. Hutchison off! Please contact Katie Glenn if you have any questions or would like to make a donation to fight ALS. We can make arrangements to pick up donations from other schools and locations. Mr. Hutchison will take one for the team on Friday May 10th (time and location to be determined).
Thank you in advance for your support!
