10th Grade Brigader Jensen Seager shows off her stained glass skills! The monkey has a mirror for a face...very creative, Jensen! :)

The Lawrence University Percussion Ensemble students performed for the 8th graders on March 10th at Brigade. Professor Dane Richeson and 19 of his students brought in drums and instruments of all sorts. It was VERY loud in the gym! The Brigaders and leaders got a chance to participate in an African dance to the drumming and were able to try the drums out!

The 10th graders took a trip to the Winnebago County Courthouse for a mock trial and a lesson on Integrity by Judge Karen Seifert.

The 8th grade boys participated in a Team Challenge. Here one group tries to work together to blow ping pong balls UP the table for points!

The 8th grade Angermeyer group is ready to tie-dye!

Matt Morrissey, a Monday night co-leader lends a hand to one of his 6th grade Brigaders in the woodshop. It's always a blast working with power tools!

1910 vintage cup

Peter Graverson (l) donated a vintage 1910 award cup to the Brigade, pictured making the donation to John Dery (r). He found and purchased the item on Ebay. We believe the cup was an award for the person who drove the farthest (379 miles) to attend a Brigade alumni gathering. You can see the cup in the lobby display case next time you visit! Thank you, Peter!

25 9th graders got the chance to breathe, relax, and streeeetch a bit on Wednesday night by signing up for a Yoga Workshop. Chari Blurton from the Neenah-Menasha YMCA ran the workshop for us. A leader commented afterwards "We should do this every week!"
