Plantation Holiday Parade

Happy Holidays...well almost. On Saturday, the Solar Knights participated in the Plantation Holiday Parade. This gave us an opportunity to show off our amazing car to the community. This week is only two days therefore today Jasen. Kirsten, and Syd plan on cleaning up from the parade and update the blogs. Also Syd plans on starting the next grant application and updating Facebook.

Sydney didn't get a chance to start the calling sponsors seminar but she did finish the leadership position list, wrote her speech and did her PowerPoint for the school board meeting she was attending, sent out Mrs. Krauss thank you, and did the picture board. She also worked with Matt to put together her senior project, and drew it up on SolidWorks.  Jasen, Kirsten, and Syd all worked together to get ready for the holiday parade.
