Jump Rope for Heart
In support of February as National Heart month, our Brookwood Bobcats will be focusing on learning new
jump roping skills and how we can keep our hearts healthy. We will be covering this through fun lessons in
our regularly scheduled P.E. classes, so no separate event is needed. Collecting donations for the American
Heart Association is completely optional, but for students who choose to raise money there are really cool
“thank you” prizes that can be earned. All donation packets (along with printouts of online donations) are
due FEBRUARY 27.

Daddy Daughter Dance Candid Photos UPDATE
We've heard a few complaints about the cost of shipping for the candid pictures taken by Ananchel. We have
negotiated another option: low-resolution files that can be emailed to you. You can print them up to 4x6 in
size. Now it's your choice: you can have the picture emailed to avoid the shipping charge, or you can have it
printed and shipped with the $5.50 shipping charge. Next year, we will look into renting the backdrop and
props so everyone can take pictures from their own cameras and cell phones. Hopefully, this'll provide a better
solution. In the meantime, if you want to order candid pictures to be shipped to you, visit
http://ananchel.hhimagehost.com/Consumer/OrganizationView.aspx?url=brookwood. If you want to order
candid pictures to be emailed, visit the site above, note the image number, and call Ananchel at 770-831-
0078. Ananchel will take your credit card information and email address over the phone, and they will email
If you ordered and pre-paid for a portrait package at the Dance, it will be delivered to the school in the next week or so. Questions? Contact Belinda Burnett at [email protected]
