REMINDER

1. Ever have the problem of not knowing how to open your chess match? Tired of being stumped with things on the board are tense? Do you want to me the one making your opponent explain "How'd you do that?!" instead of the other way around? Then come to Chess Club today in P-20 for a special session on strategies! It's sure to be fun see you there!

2. Calling all new and returning Davis High School Track and Field Athletes: Now is the time to get ready for the 2011 season. Preseason conditioning sessions begin now, and DHS track and field athletes not involved in a winter DHS sport should attend. The workouts will focus on three specific areas: event-specific training, strength and explosion, and speed development. Over the past few seasons, our work in December and January has proven critical in our section and conference championship efforts. So come on out, join your team and don't fear the hard work. Preseason conditioning is open to new and returning track and field athletes including ninth graders, no prior experience required! We meet every Monday through Thursday at 4pm at the DHS Track. Once again, track and field preseason conditioning meets Monday through Thursday at 4pm at the track. Visit www.dhstrack.com<http://www.dhstrack.com/> or Coach Elliott in room L-25.

We will be collecting toys from now until Friday, December 17th. They will be distributed to hospitalized and disadvantaged kids just before the holidays. If you have any questions please call the DHS front desk.

2. Hey everyone it's that time of year again! This year's Junior Prom is just around the corner. Our 2010 theme is Arabian Nights! Junior Prom will be held on Saturday, December 11, from 9 PM-midnight in the DHS New Gym. The Junior Prom is open to ALL students at DHS, Da Vinci, King and DSIS. Students from outside the Davis Joint Unified School District may attend. Tickets will be on sale beginning Monday, November 29, through Friday, December 10. They will be sold during lunch on the DHS campus. For the first week prices will be $25 with ASB, $30 without, and for the second week prices will be $30 with ASB and $35 without. In order to purchase a bid each student needs a signed Jr. Prom Dance contract which will be available in the office, C-4, or downloadable from the PTA website at www.dhspta.org by the end of this week. Because we are using the New Gym (since the MPR has been shut down), a new shoe policy is in effect: soft-soled shoes only. This means no hard plastic, or anything that could in any way dent or scratch the gym floor.
