Seventh grade students practiced one of the 7 Mindset principles, "Live to Give", by giving kindness to Wind River staff members. Students gave staff members "Heart Attacks", decorating their doors with words of kindness and hearts.
Week 4 Fish-date!
Our visitors have all arrived, 157 rainbow trout sac-fry (at least that is what we counted!). They are doing well and using up their yolk-sac to grow. In about 1 month they should start swimming up to the top to feed and then we can move them out of the egg basket and into the new 55 gallon home!

We hope to see you all next week during Service Week!
Our guests are officially arriving! We have had several eggs now hatch into the second stage of a trout's life cycle, the sac-fry stage.
They will remain a sac-fry for about 30 days while they use up the yoke that they are attached to. After that they will start swimming up and feeding, then we can release them into the tank.
SAVE THE DATE! The Fourth Annual 3x3 Basketball Tournament is two months out. More information regarding registration to come, hope to see you all there!
Our 4th graders have been testing the water in our tank to make sure the environment is just right for our guests! Hopefully our guests will show themselves very soon because they are past the due date we calculated...stay tuned.

Service Week Night Activity Updates!
Monday: Movie Night
Tuesday: Bingo
Wednesday: Dodgeball Tournament
Thursday: Support our HS Wrestling Duals
High Plains Power has gone above and beyond for the youth in their community. They have made two significant contributions to the Wind River wrestling team that have made a huge positive impact on the entire wrestling team. High Plains Power made a generous donation to help us in hosting our Don Runner wrestling tournament. In addition to their support with the Don Runner, they also made a second donation to our wrestling team which allowed our team to purchase a unique wrestling light specific to the sport of wrestling. Wind River Schools, wrestling program, and all of the wrestlers could not be more thankful for the generosity and investment into the youth of Fremont County shown by High Plains Power. Every wrestler knows the bonuses a wrestling light adds to the environment and feel during a wrestling match, as well as the improved confidence it can give to a wrestler when wrestling “under the light!” The reaction and excitement of the team when the light was first turned on was a priceless moment that a coach will never forget. From our hearts at Wind River to yours at High Plains Power, all we can say is, “Thank you. We love it!”
Pictured below is the CEO of High Plains Power, Board Members, and Wind River Wrestling Team!
End of week two and no major changes to our guests, but they do look a little bigger and you can definitely see some eyes! Our 4th and 5th graders did the math calculations to determine when they may hatch, and it looks like it will happen this weekend...so stay tuned!

Third Graders have been studying weather in Science. They became engineers of their own design that could potentially help with Wyoming road conditions. They then received a visit from WYDOT! The students were able to take a tour around the snowplows, ask questions regarding their own designs to see if they had any advice to offer, and then they were able to try out the driver's seat while taking a look at the cab. Thank you, WYDOT for such a great demonstration!
