February is Pinole Creek Awareness Month--we all win!
This is the month we celebrate our aquatic connection, Pinole Creek! We are going to spend every day reflecting on our own stories that go along with the creek that goes along our campus. The Pinole Creek folk have provided us all sort of fun facts and history and we will find students who have Pinole Creek stories of their own where they can win totes and t-shirts and prizes that honor creek life. We are going to share every day announcements about the flora and fauna of our waterway. Tell us what you love and we may get new stories to share too.

Latinos Unidos celebrates Loteria
Loteria is a bingo game that we would like more people to participate in. We would be decorating our own cards and turn them into a deck and playing card so that we could play a unique version that is special to our club. Eventually, I think it would be fun to have the finished product available for people at our school to join in and play at a future event. Join us at Latinos Unidos tomorrow and throughout the next few weeks.
