Humane Society Collection

Last Spring the library sponsored the"America's Next Top Pet"contest. Staff members entered their pets and worked hard to collect donations that proved their pet was the reigning diva! Each contestant created a fabulous collection bucket and encouraged donations for their pet(s). The tiniest chihuahua owned by Ms. Carper won the fabulous container of special dogie treats and a toy. Melvin and Axle Stout won the glorious kitty climbing toy. The real winner, however, was the Shenandoah County Humane Society with a charitable donation of over $700! Our students and staff are an awesome bunch of folks! Above is a picture of Gloria and Betty, two of the Humane Society's rescues. We will definitely do this project again!!

Help Stop Hunger

Help stop hunger in our community by contributing a box of breakfast cereal to the annual Library Cereal Collection. Our goal is to collect over 100 boxes of cereal to benefit a local food pantry. We would like to deliver the boxes by November 1. Please take time to support this drive and to generously help and support our local food banks as we work together to stop hunger.

NVD Book Drive

Mrs. Hiserman and the FCCLA joined with the Teen Council to turn in 150 new children's books for the Northern Virginia Daily Book Drive! Happy Reading!

Compassion Cupboard

We did it!!!! One hundred and two boxes of cereal will be delivered to our Strasburg Food Pantry: The Compassion Cupboard.

THANK YOU STRASBURG HIGH SCHOOL for making a difference in our community, for coming together to serve our neighbors and for being part of the solution...thank you!

Red Cross Training

On May 26, 2010, Sharon Baroncelli, Shenandoah Director, offered Red Cross disaster training at SHS. The students were very excited and enthusiastic. The training offered our students an outstanding opportunity to prepare for disasters and give back to our community.

Disaster Relief Training

Twenty students participated in the Red Cross Disaster Relief training on April 28, 2010 in the library. Katie and Ann promoted the training as part of their community service for the National Honor Society. Special thanks go out to Jill Siegel, Red Cross trainer and Sharon Baroncelli, Director Shenandoah Area Red Cross. A great success!!
