In order to process everything for the Trojan Times on Thursdays on a timely basis, if you have items that you want in the Times, please have that information in the school office by the end of the day on Wednesday.   Thank you for your cooperation.

Please see attached signup sheet for working the Basketball Tournament February 4 - 6.  This is a large fundraiser for our school.  We need a lot of help and this is a good way to satisfy your 10 volunteer hours.   Please sign up and return as soon as possible.  This also helps to get the shift you want to work.  Thanks.

Attention All Parents of Boys B-Team Basketball:  As you may or may not know, Mr. Reinl will be unable to coach the boys during Trinity's basketball tournament coming up Feb 4th - 6th.  So, I will be filling in for him.  I would like to hold one practice on Tuesday, Feb 2nd from 3 - 4:30pm.  This will allow the boys and me to get reacquainted with each other and to reinforce what Mr. Reinl has taught them.  If your son is unable to attend practice, please let me know so I can plan accordingly.  Feel free to call me at 410-0415 with any questions and I look forward to the opportunity of coaching the boys once again.     Leslie Fuller

ATTENTION CHEERLEADERS
We will cheer for the boys B game on Friday, February 5th at 5:40 so we should be there by 5:15.  The time of the next game will be determined by the outcome of this game.
Trinity Girls Basketball News

The B team will practice on Monday and Wednesday next week as we prepare for our tournament.  The B team girls play again on Friday, February 5th at 4:00 p.m. in our first game at our own Trinity tournament.  We will be playing Celebration in that game.

The A team girls are now 10-0 after winning 41-18 at St. John Berlin last week and also winning the New Hope Classic tournament this past weekend.  The next A team game will be on February 8th in Manawa. 

Parents, please sign up to help out at the Trinity tournament on February 4th, 5th, and 6th.  We would like to see each player's parents signed up for at least one shift that weekend. 
Thank you.  Coach Haag

We have rescheduled the game at Manawa on Monday, February 8th.  Girls B - 4:30, Girls A - 5:30, Boys - 6:30          Shelly Rothe

Can you believe that Valentine's Day is only 2 weeks away?!  We have great ideas for your special someone.  Perhaps you would like to surprise her with some jewelry.  We have SCRIP cards for Macy's and Kay Jewelers.  Will you be dining out that night?  We have SCRIP cards for Applebee's and Chili's.  If you will be seeing a movie, we have SCRIP cards for Marcus Theatre's.  Buy SCRIP cards and make the shopping easy!  We are going to be having Pick N Save cards in $25 and $50 denominations.  Look for them to be available for immediate purchase as soon as they arrive. 

Last weeks sales were $1,820.00 with a profit of $55.90.  Thank you to the 21 families that ordered SCRIP.  

SCRIP cards are offered at the school's office Monday - Friday during school hours or before and after each of the Sunday services.  Please come and talk to us and see what we have to offer you.  Remember that we aren't asking you to spend any more than you already are on your daily purchases.

Thanks for your weekly support!  Kathy Bechard 235-5374.

DID YOU KNOW??  The National Youth Gathering is just around the corner.  Youth, chaperones and parents have been busy fund raising.  We want to thank everyone who has supported us in our fundraisers.  For those of you who wish to give us some financial support, but do not want to buy candy, plants, pizza or calendars, there is a Youth Gathering Fund, which was set up before the last trip.  If you have the desire to give a monetary donation to help fund the trip you may donate to that fund.  Sponsorships are needed.  Please contact Shelly Rothe (420-7138) for details.  Again, we thank everyone for their continued support.  The experience of participating in a youth gathering with 35,000 other Lutheran teenagers is an awesome experience.  Thanks for helping us have that opportunity.

The Mighty Castle Chess Club invites students in grades 1-12 for Friday afternoon chess games at the Oshkosh Public Library.  Play informal games and meet other chess players.  Improve your skills by facing a variety of players.  No charge to participate and no registration necessary.  Drop in whenever you can! 
The club will meet January 15, 22, 29 - February 5, 12, 26 - March 5, 12, 19, 26.
Parents are invited to attend, help supervise or play when needed. 
This is a joint program of the Oshkosh Recreation Department (ORD) and the Oshkosh Public Library.

CAMPBELL SOUP LABELS:  Our school has been part of the Campbell's "Labels for Education" program for several years.  Thanks to all of you who take the time to remove your labels and bring them in.  Labels from Campbell's, Swanson, V8 and more are collected to be redeemed for various items, such as computer software, etc.  The most important part of the label is the UPC code.  Please do not just send the front portion of the label.  They are no longer accepted.  Before the labels are sent in to the company, they are cut and sorted.  Labels not containing the UPC code are thrown away.  There are receptacles both here at school and at church for collections.  If you have questions, please contact the school or church office.
