Annawan CUSD 226

T1D AWARENESS NIGHT Tuesday, December 17 Mark your calendars!! The Annawan boys basketball team is hosting a T1D Awareness night on Tuesday, December 17. We are hoping to pack the gym, raise awareness about the signs and symptoms of Type 1 Diabetes, and raise some money for the Pediatric Diabetes Resource Center at OSF in Peoria. This is our 3rd year hosting a T1D night and hope to make this year our most successful year yet! We will be collecting raffle baskets and donations for our T1D night right up until the 17th! If you would like to make a donation, please contact myself, Jillian Kidd Huber, or Andrea Hakes. The online store is open now and will close Tuesday, November 26th. There is a shipping option for supporters that are farther away but anyone in the area should choose the "Annawan High School" pickup option. I will be picking those items up and sending them home with students/getting them delivered! https://stores.inksoft.com/t1d_awareness_2024/shop/home Let's pack the gym, cheer on our boys and raise some money for the Pediatric Diabetic Resource Center! We hope to see you there!
