Green Team News
Harvest of the Month
Thank you to the parent volunteers, cafeteria staff, SLC Green Team student servers, and the Ipswich Public School food services for coordinating to bring back Harvest of the Month! Last week, Winthrop students excitedly sampled cranberry relish - a deliciously sweet and tart treat! If your family would like to try it at home, you can find the recipe here. Keep an eye out for December's Harvest of the Month - carrots!

Jingle Bell Walk
Join us for a day of holiday festivities and cheer! Greet Santa as he arrives at the Ipswich Town Wharf. Sing carols with Buddy the Elf as we await Santa’s arrival! Jingle bells will be available for purchase. Jingle your bells and follow our honored guest and Buddy the Elf on a festive “Jingle Bell Walk” to the Ipswich Town Hall at 45 Green Street. Keep a sharp eye out for the Grinch!
Once Santa arrives at Town Hall, he will receive children 11 and under while a string quartet entertains. Parents are urged to bring a camera! Following their visit with Santa, the children can have their faces painted, play festive games, and create holiday crafts. The Rotary Club will serve hot dogs, hot cocoa, and more in the COA cafeteria.
Tickets will be available for purchase in order to enjoy delicious food, face painting, and crafts. There will be free games to play as well. Raffles for Christmas trees, a new iPad and apple pencil, and local business baskets will also be up for grabs!
Attendees are encouraged to bring unwrapped gifts fit for a child to support the Marines in their organization, Toys for Tots! Proceeds from the Jingle Bell Walk proceeds will be donated to charitable activities and Interact Club activities.
Ipswich Interact is a high school group that prioritizes youth leadership and follows the Rotary model of "service above self." This event is a great way to connect high schoolers with younger children!
