On Tuesday, May 19, Paige Salvante will be presenting her portfolio. Following on Thursday, May 21, Bonnie Passley and Monica McGaffy will be presenting theirs. Sam Ayala is presenting on Tuesday, May 26, and on Thursday, May 28, Amanda Tchamourian and Kaitlyn Sliger will be presenting. We would like to wish them all good luck.
We would like to congratulate our students of the week. Will McAlister was student of the week for the last week of April. Dylan Sheldon took student of the week for the first week of May. These students received their student of the week because of their hard work and continuous gold status. Carlé
would like to congratulate these students for their hard work. Keep it up.
Art and science camp was the weekend of May 1 and 2. Mr. Maes, a teacher at Carlé, had participated in the camp. “It was a lot of fun, very interesting, and well put together,” he said.
At the first station, the camp played music. The second station dissected animal pellets. At the third station the kids made tule dolls. We would also like to thank DJ's Pizza for providing pizza for the camp. The kids also went to see a planetary show and after got to make sun dials. Sounds like these kids had a lot of fun.
We would like to thank all of the students who helped and participated in the Lake County Land Trust community service. There, students helped stuff envelopes, seal them, and stamp them.
On May 24, Carlé will play a big role in them Lower Lake Memorial parade, which starts at 11 a.m. Carlé takes the part of setting up the parade, cleaning up and even poop duty.
After the parade at noon, Without a Net will be performing at the wonderful barbecue at Russell Ristici Lower Lake Park. We need students from Carlé to help with the community service. It's a long day but it will be repaid with one credit.
The following day, at 6:45 a.m., Carlé will help with the Avenue of the Flags. This is the raising of over 300 flags for the veterans at the Lower Lake Memorial Graveyard. Helpers will get coffee and donuts in the morning.
This day will be worth six hours. If a Carlé student signs up for both days they will receive two whole credits, and if they do poop duty on top of that, they will get two and a half credits. You do not have to sign up for both days, but your help will be much appreciated. If you are interested in signing for
either day, contact Alan Siegel.
Carlé would also like to wish luck to all the students who took the Star Test on May 11 through May 15. Carlé is counting on you.
Amanda Tchamourian is a student at Carlé High School in Lower Lake.

Bronco Chip Bingo is a game that pits your luck against the gastronomic actions of a horse. Each land parcel "deed" (ticket) represents a square on the bingo playing field.
The playing field will be laid out in an equestrian arena with a maximum of 1,000 parcels. Each number will be randomly assigned to a specific parcel on the bingo playing field before the horse is released. When “nature calls” the horse will do its duty. Wherever the chip falls determines the winner. If the horse drops its “chip” on your parcel you win 20 percent of the ticket sales up to $1,000.
Bingo “deeds” (tickets) are available for $10. Each “deed” comes with generous dining coupons from Gracias Taqueria, Mount St. Helena Brewing Co., Subway (HVL) and Ting’s Thai Kitchen. Tickets can be purchased at any of the restaurants mentioned above, at Middletown Middle School or by sending a check to MMS PTSO at 20932 Big Canyon Rd., Middletown, CA 95461.
Bronco Chip Bingo will be played on May 30 from 3 p.m. to 5 p.m. during the grand opening event at the Wiloth Equine Therapy & Riding Center on Highway 29 at Butts Canyon Road in Middletown.
The bingo game ends at 5 p.m. or after the horse drops a “chip.” Come join us for a day of fun with horse rides, barbecue, Astro Event jumpies, petting zoo, games, face painting, vendor booths and of course Bronco Chip Bingo.
Please call 707-987-9756 for further information.
