April 2000 Events
	Team 7J went to Great Oaks Campground on April 27 and 28 and experienced "Outdoor Education." The program is designed to give students an experience in nature while using teambuilding activities. Eighty-seven students and almost 20 parents and staff members went on the two day, one night trip to the camp just outside of Lacon, Illinois. The highlights of the trip included the "zip-line" (you'll have to ask a student!),  presentations by Marge Bjorkland (animals) and Garry Moore (African History), and the extremely cold showers in Eagle Nest! The students had a wonderful time and will remember this trip for a very long time. A HUGE thank-you to Mr. Larry VonBehren who organized the entire trip.  Pictures   Pictures   Pictures   Pictures   Pictures
	Congratulations to Mr. and Mrs. Burton on the birth of their new baby girl, Elizabeth Clare. Elizabeth was born at 8:43p.m. on April 25. She weighed 8 lbs. 3 ozs. and was 20 inches long. Elizabeth is our 4th Broadmoor Baby this year and is the first girl in the bunch! Mrs. Burton teaches Music and is the Chorus director here at Broadmoor. Congratulations to the Burtons on their wonderful new addition!!
	Team 8S had their Exhibition Night on April 13. Students were each given their own table in which they displayed various pieces of work from throughout the school year. The focus of the evening was on families and family history. One student, Jessica, actually had four generations of her family attend the exhibition. A huge thanks to students who stayed after school to help set up and to parents and students who attended this special evening.
