Superintendent’s Message
Janet Sifferman, Superintendent
Welcome to the 2010/2011 school year. We have been busy
this summer preparing for our students’ return. You will
see several new faces due to the large number of teacher
retirements at the close of the last school year. We are very
excited to welcome our new staff on board.
This summer we began the first phase of our 2010 Bond Issue work. Some
classrooms will see new technology and our parking lot and gym lighting has been
upgraded. Thank you Hartland community for your support of our 2010 Bond
proposal. During these difficult financial times and with significant turmoil involving Michigan’s economy, Hartland Consolidated Schools continues to stay on
course and keep its eye on its major objective – to educate and prepare students
for the world outside.
I am extremely proud that our administrators, employee groups, and support
staff, under the calm and measured direction of our Board of Education, continue to work cohesively and cooperatively to provide our students with the best
possible education. The cooperation we enjoy is the key to navigating through
difficult times. The Hartland community has a tradition of banding together and
functioning as a family with all stakeholders putting children first. We at Hartland
Consolidated Schools are fortunate to be a part of this, and are eagerly looking
forward to another successful school year.
Hartland Cheer Teams
Offer a BIG Thank You!
The Hartland High School Cheer Teams recently participated in a Stunt Camp on
June 24 sponsored by Champion Cheer. Approximately 250 girls attended this
camp held at Hartland High School to sharpen their stunting skills and learn new
techniques in the field of cheerleading.
As a fundraiser, the Hartland Teams offered concessions to the girls in attendance.
The girls would like to extend a big thank you to Hartland Kroger and the Brighton
Costco Store who each donated items for the girls to sell.
The teams were fundraising for camps they attended during the summer. The
Varsity Girls attended camp at the University of Kentucky and the Junior Varsity
Team attended camp at Alma College. Each camp offered opportunities for the
girls to practice stunting, advance their knowledge in the field of cheerleading,
and bond as a unified team for the competitive season.

Preschool program
is taking Registrations
The Hartland Community Education Preschool offers an exception educational
program. Each classroom is staffed with one teacher and one classroom assistant,
who are very qualified and eager to offer your child the finest start into their
educational future.
The Hartland Preschool program is a tuition based program. Our program is
designed to develop social skills, and educational skills through play based activities. We will encourage your child to develop a positive self image through social
interaction and problem solving. We offer a wide range of activities to accommodate
the varied stages of each child’s development.
As your child progresses through the program, they will work on strengthening
their fine and gross motor skills. The children will progress through introductory
reading, math and science, as part of the curriculum throughout the year.
The Hartland Community Education Preschool programs offer two convenient
locations in the Hartland and Howell areas. Each classroom offers a spacious, well
lit area. Each center offers outside play areas. Both locations offer classrooms which
are set with learning centers, books, dress up clothes, and games.
We will be offering a full range of classes and class times. The preschool classes
are offered as a 2 or 3 day option. For the 3 year olds, Mrs. DeRosier will offer a 3
year old program on Monday & Wednesday, for both A.M. and P.M. sessions. *New
this year!* The 3 year old children will have the option of adding the Friday class!
This class will be offered for the A.M. & P.M. sessions.
Mrs. Lubeski will offer a 3 year old program on Tuesday & Thursday for the
A.M. session. Please remember that the child must be 3 years old by September 1,
2010.

Are you looking for Childcare
during the school year?

ensure that every child entering the Center is provided with the most excellent care.
The Before School Program at the School Street location is open from 6:30
a.m. to approximately 8:45 a.m.. Each of the elementary schools (including Farms
Intermediate School) have buses assigned to pick up your child from our Center. The
buses will transport them to their designated school.
The After School Program is open from approx. 3:50 p.m. to 6:00 p.m. Hartland
School buses will deliver your child to our Center each day. The time that they arrive at the center will vary, depending on the school bus route schedule.

or five afternoons. Your tuition charge is based on full time enrollment regardless
of the number of days attended each week.
The spots on the bus fill up fast so don’t delay!
If your child is registered for the Before or After School Programs, he/she can
attend the Center when there is a “No School” or “Snow Day.” Tuition for “No school”
or Snow days is more, and the amount due will be adjusted accordingly. Please
remember that we offer year-round childcare.
Our center offers care for infants (2 weeks old to 2-1/2 years), daycare (2-1/2

Notification
of Rights under FERPA
The Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act (FERPA) affords parents and
students over 18 years of age (“eligible students”) certain rights with respect to the student’s education records.
They are:
1) The right to inspect and review the student’s education records within 45 days of the day the District
receives a request for access.
a. Parents or eligible students should submit to the school principal [or appropriate school official]
a written request that identifies the record(s) they wish to inspect. The principal will make
arrangements for access and notify the parent or eligible student of the time and place where the
records may be inspected.
2) The right to request the amendment of the student’s education records that the parent or eligible student
believes are inaccurate or misleading.
a. Parents or eligible students may ask Hartland Consolidated School District to amend a record that
they believe is inaccurate or misleading. They should write the school principal, clearly identify the
part of the record they want changed, and specify why it is inaccurate or misleading.
b. If the District decides not to amend the record as requested by the parent or eligible student, the
District will notify the parent or eligible student of the decision and advise them of their right to a
hearing regarding the request for amendment. Additional information regarding the hearing
procedures will be provided to the parent or eligible student when notified of the right to a hearing.
3) The right to consent to disclosures of personally identifiable information contained in the student’s
education records, except to the extent that FERPA authorizes disclosure without consent.

legitimate educational interests. A school official is a person employed by the District as an
administrator, supervisor, instructor, or support staff member (including health or medical staff
and law enforcement unit personnel); a person serving on the School Board; a person or company
with whom the District has contracted to perform a special task (such as an attorney, auditor,
medical consultant, or therapist); or a parent or student serving on an official committee, such as a
disciplinary or grievance committee, or assisting another school official in performing his or her
tasks.
b. A school official has a legitimate educational interest if the official needs to review an education
record in order to fulfill his or her professional responsibility.
c. Upon request, the District discloses education records without consent to officials of another
school district in which a student seeks or intends to enroll. [NOTE: FERPA requires a school
district to make a reasonable attempt to notify the student of the records request unless it states in
its annual notification that it intends to forward records on request.]
4. The right to file a complaint with the U.S. Department of Education concerning alleged failures by the
District to comply with the requirements of FERPA. The name and address of the Office that administers
FERPA is: Family Policy Compliance Office, U.S. Department of Education, 600 Independence Avenue,
SW Washington, DC 20202-4605

released upon request: student’s name, date of birth, phone number, address, parent name(s); school of attendance,
picture(s), video(s), publication of student picture(s) with name(s) attached, artwork and school activity group(s).

What’s for Lunch?
A guide to school lunch
We in the Food Service Department are dedicated to serving your child nutritious and inviting meals. School lunch is a federally mandated program. We are
required to serve meals that meet the Federal guidelines for child nutrition. As
a Government program we are audited to make sure that we are in compliance
with the governments’ standards for nutrition. To view menus, go to the Hartland
Consolidated Schools Web site at, www.hartlandschools.us, click on Food Service
and click on the menu you would like to view. Carbohydrate counts are available
online for the Elementary & Intermediate Schools. If you do not have access to
the internet you may get the elementary menu for the week by calling the Menu
Hot line at 810.626.2190.
How do I pay for Lunch?
Each school year students are issued a student ID card, on this card is the Childs
picture and ID number. This number does not change through out their academic
years in the Hartland Schools. ID cards for students K- 6 are kept in the food service department; Ore Creek & High School students carry their ID cards. Parents
of children in K-12 may make payment by cash or checks made out to Hartland
Food Service, you may also make payments online through Parent Connect using Pay Pal. You must have a Parent Connect Pin and Password and your child/
rens ID number to make online payments, there is a 4% fee for this service. For
students K-8 place the cash or check in an envelope that is clearly marked with
the Childs name, student ID number and LUNCH MONEY. This money can be
put into the Blue box located at each Elementary, Farms Intermediate and Ore
Creek. Ore Creek students may also pay the cashier directly. High School students
must make payment directly to the food service cashier. The money is then put
into the Childs account and their ID card is used as a debit card when purchases
are made. Students at the High School and Ore Creek do not need to have their
ID when making purchases, if they know their ID number they may enter it and
their picture comes up on the screen.
How do I know how much money is on my Childs account?
Go to the Hartland School web page and click on Parent Connect, enter your pin
and password, click on Food Service and your Childs account will come up. At
the top of the statement is where you will find the balance. If you do not have a
pin & password, email [email protected] in the subject line type pin and
password, in the body of the letter list all students, grade and school they attend.
You must also include your full name, and address. A pin & password will be
emailed back to you within three weeks.
Notification of Low or Negative Balances.
Twice a week calls concerning low or negative balances are made using our automated system. This is an automated system that lets you know that at the end of
lunch on (will give date) your child’s balance was low (under $10, these calls are
made for elementary and intermediate students only) or negative (all students), it
will give you the amount positive or negative in your child’s account. If you have
multiple children you will get a call for each child that has less than $10.00 or a
negative balance. Staff also reminds students when they are getting low on funds
or owe money. A negative balance of -$6 or more at the elementary & intermediate level will result in your child receiving a peanut butter sandwich, until the
negative balance is paid. Middle School students may charge one lunch. There
is no credit given at the High School. Peanut butter sandwiches are available for
students who do not have lunch money.
Parents are encouraged to join their student for lunch to see the nutritional
choices the Hartland Food Service is offering your child. If you would like to join
your child for lunch please contact your child’s school office and place an order
by 9 a.m. (Elementary Level). Please direct any question to 810.626.2867 or 2868.
Bus Drivers Needed

Principal’s Corner
Chuck Hughes, Hartland High School Principal
Welcome to the 2010-11 school year. Things are moving fast and I am sure that
the students are excited to be back. The 2009-10 school year saw many successes
by our students. Hartland High School graduated 473 students on June 10, 2010.
Our high school students continue to record a 95% Average Daily Attendance
rate while being credited with a .45% Drop-Out Rate (less than ½ of 1 percent).
The high school has earned its second consecutive “A” on the State Report Card
and once again earned Adequate Yearly Progress under the No Child Left Behind
legislation. This year the high school will have a visit by the Advanced Education
/ North Central Accreditation program for a Quality Assurance Review. The result
of this visit will be shared with the community. All in all, I am extremely proud of
our students, teachers, support personnel and community for the support in how
we go about learning and preparing for post secondary opportunities.
As the year begins, I am asking parents to remember that while it may seem
a great time to allow students more autonomy in their decision making process,
I have found that the reverse is true. There will be many distractions such as the
transition to earning credit for graduation, driver education, additional extracurricular opportunities, dating, new friends, jobs, etc. as your child finishes their
final years in public education. Please remember to support them, ask many
questions about what is happening in school, review their homework, and stay
connected to what is happening at school. Parent-Connect, the high school web
page www.hartlandhighschool.us and Community Life should help you stay “in
the know.” If you have questions please do not hesitate to contact the high school
at 810.626.2200.

Congratulations to HHS student Emmalie Quella for taking
first place in the Livingston County United Way Day of Caring
Logo Design Competition! High school students from across
Livingston County were invited to submit a logo design to give
the Day of Caring Logo a fresh, new look. The competition was
structured to emphasize to students the importance of doing
research about the organization, the necessity of ‘brand marketing’, working with
real-life deadlines and working to the customer’s satisfaction. The winning design
was then incorporated into a final graphic to be used in upcoming marketing
pieces. Congratulations also goes out to third place winners Drew Wagner, Hailey
Pleshakov, Briana Tamas, Andrew Wilkinson, Alex Mitchell, and Sam Stark.

the state of Michigan. Three of our students were awarded plaques for placing in
the top 3 in the entire state of Michigan. The following students were awarded for
placing in the top ten positions of a particular project category.

Athletics
Cross Country and Girls Volleyball seasons start at the beginning of the school
year. Students planning on participating in any school sports team or club this
year must have a current physical (dated after April 15, 2010) on file in the Middle
School office in order to participate (forms are available in the Middle School office and will be mailed with student schedules). There is a participation fee for
interscholastic sports and school sponsored clubs. A one-time $95 fee will allow
students to participate in any school team and/or club for which they otherwise
qualify (this one-time fee covers all sports and clubs throughout the year).
Tardy To School Policy
Please help your child do his or her best. Attendance is a crucial factor for student
academic success.
Students tardy to school (i.e. late to Homeroom) must be signed in at the front
office by a parent or legal guardian in order for the tardy to be considered excused.
Unexcused tardies to school will result in disciplinary action.
Excessive parent excused tardies may be referred to the Livingston County
Attendance Officer.
Parent Connect
The busses, hallways, classrooms, and commons will soon be filled with students again,
as in this photo from a past beginning of the school year.
Welcome From The Principal
On behalf of the faculty and staff of Hartland Middle School at Ore Creek, welcome to the students and families new to our school as well as to those returning
for another school year. We have been working hard to continue to provide the
best education possible for our students.
The school office reopens August 16 with office hours 7:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m.
Please feel free to drop by or call the Middle School office at 810. 626.2400 with
any questions. We plan to mail schedules and other information home the week
of August 23.
Parent Connect allows parents with Internet access to monitor their children’s
grades. If you had a password assigned last year, it remains the same. Contact
Karen Wilson at [email protected] for assistance.
Phone Messages To Students In School
It can be very disruptive to call students out of class to deliver routine messages.
Please make every effort to communicate after school plans with students before
they begin their school day. We appreciate your help in keeping our school the
best learning environment possible.
Safety In The Parking Lot
The morning “drop off” time before school and afternoon “pick up” time after
school means that students who are being driven to and from school must negotiate a very busy parking lot. PLEASE DRIVE SLOWLY AND CAUTIOUSLY and put
the safety of our students ahead of time issues.

Thanks For All The Memories
We would like to say good luck to all of the 09-10 Creeskside
4th graders. Whether it was dancing around at the sock
hop or running around the track for the Fall Fun Run this
group of kids always had a smile on their faces. They also
found time to have fun while learning during the reading
exchange and on Mackinac Island. We thank you for all
the memories that you have created over the last 5 years
here at Creekside and wish you good luck at the Farms!! Ms. Murphy’s Class is hanging out with the Eagle Mascot before the Fall Fun Run.
The students learned how to use flint rocks to crate
sparks like the French Voyageurs on Mackinac Island.
During the middle school reading exchange the students
find some time to smile for the camera.

The Brown family reunion has always been an event
everyone looks forward to. Family visits, games,
stories and everyone’s favorite foods are always on
the agenda. On the top of the menu is Grandma’s
Lemon Coconut Cake. Grandma always makes the
traditional cake from her old family recipe. This
year, however, the cake tasted a little on the salty
side, perhaps a half cup full of salty.
Though the family was disappointed over the
cake, of more concern was Grandma’s confusion
with the receipt and her similar confusion about the
loved ones around her. Could something be wrong
with grandma’s mental state?
One might say that for an elder person a little
forgetfulness or confusion is normal, but when do you
know if there is a serious problem, such as dementia?
An online article from Family Doctor.org
outlines some common symptoms in recognizing
dementia:
“Dementia causes many problems for the person
who has it and for the person’s family. Many of the
problems are caused by memory loss. Some common symptoms of dementia are listed below. Not
everyone who has dementia will experience all of
these symptoms.
Recognizing Symptoms of Dementia
Recent Memory loss. All of us forget things for a
while and then remember them later. People who have
dementia often forget things, but they never remember
them. They might as you the same question over and
over, each time forgetting that you’ve already given
them the answer. They won’t even remember that they
already asked the question.
Difficulty performing family tasks. People who have
dementia might cook a meal but forget to serve it. They
might even forget that they cooked it. Problems with
language. People who have dementia may forget simple
words or use the wrong words. This makes it hard to
understand what they want.
Time and place disorientation. People who have
dementia may get lost on their own street. They may
forget how they got to a certain place and how to get
back home.
Poor judgment. Even a person who doesn’t have
dementia might get distracted. But people who have
dementia can forget simple things, like forgetting to put
on a coat before going out in cold weather.
Problems with abstract thinking. Anybody might
have trouble balancing a checkbook, but people who
have dementia may forget what the numbers are and
what has to be done with them.
Misplacing things. People who have dementia may
put things in the wrong places. They might put an iron
in the freezer or a wristwatch in the sugar bow. Then
they can’t find these things later.
Changes in Mood. Everyone is moody at times, but
people who have dementia may have fast mood swings,
going from calm to tears to anger in a few minutes. Personality changes. People who have dementia may
have drastic changes in personality. They might become
irritable, suspicious or fearful.
Loss of Initiative. People who have dementia may
become passive. They might not want to go places or
see other people.”
Dementia is caused by change or destruction of
brain cells. Often this change is a result of small strokes
or blockage of blood cells, sever hypothyroidism or
Alzheimer’s
disease. There is a continuous decline in
ability to perform normal daily activities. Personal care
including dressing, bathing, preparing meals and even
eating a meal eventually becomes impossible.
What can family members do if they suspect
dementia? An appointment with the doctor or geriatric
clinic is the first step to take. Depending on the cause
and severity of the problem there are some medications
that may help slow the process. Your doctor may rec-
ommend a care facility that specializes in dementia
and Alzheimer’s. These facilities offer a variety of
care options from day care with stimulating activities to part or full-time live-in options. Sometimes
if patients tend to wander off, a locked facility is
needed.
In the beginning family members find part time
caregivers for their loved one. At first, loved ones
need only a little help with remembering to do daily
activities or prepare meals. As dementia progresses,
caregiving demands often progress to 24 hour care. Night and day become confused and normal routines
of sleeping, eating and functioning become more
difficult for the patient. The demented person feels
frustrated and may lash out in anger or fear. It is not
uncommon for a child or a spouse giving the care to
become overwhelmed and discouraged.
Professional home care services are an option
to help families in the home. These providers are
trained and skilled to help with dementia patients. Don’t forget care facilities as well. It may be the
best loving care a family member can give is to
place heir loved one in a facility where that person
is safely monitored and cared for.

Lakes Elementary News
Welcome Back !
from your Principal, Mrs. Smither:
I am so excited to welcome you all to the Lakes Elementary for the 2010-2011 school
year! I hope that your summer was filled with great fun, lots of reading, plenty of rest
and relaxation, and that you are ready to begin another awesome year at Lakes. Our
teachers and staff have been busy preparing their classrooms and the building, and
we are anxious to begin the new school year with all of you.
We have quite a few changes this year at Lakes, including our starting and ending
times. School will begin at 9:05am now and will end at 3:55pm. This is a 10 minute
shift from previous years, however, students will continue to receive the same amount
of important instruction time as in the past.
We will also be losing several of our teachers due to either retirement or other assignments within the district. Congratulations to our 2010 Lakes retirees: Mrs. Joyce
Johnson, Mrs. Maggie Shrier, Mrs. Debbie Karr, Mrs. Kay Knoeferl and Mrs. Diane
LaGuire-Quinn. We appreciate all their wonderful service to the Lakes Family and wish
them all the best as they pursue other exciting adventures. We will miss them dearly!
Congratulations to our own Mrs. Dotty Selix and Mrs. Jenna Furr who will be taking a year off of their current assignments to participate in a special project for the
Hartland district. They have been chosen to be Intervention Coaches for all of the
Hartland elementary buildings, where they will support and coach our K-6 teachers
in the areas of reading and writing. We are proud of them as they embark on this important initiative and know that they will have a great impact on literacy instruction
throughout the district.
Congratulations also to Mrs. Lisa Eagloski, on her marriage this summer. Her new
name is Mrs. Dennis and she has also moved from teaching second grade at Lakes to
teaching Kindergarten at Lakes. Mrs. Dennis has lots of experience at this level as she
taught kindergarten and first grade for several years at the Round School.
We are also pleased to welcome several new teachers to the Lakes. Coming from
Creekside Elementary we have Mrs. Mary LaPointe who will be teaching in the Media
Center, Mrs. Lisa Villar who will be returning to Lakes and will teach second grade,
and Mrs. Madeline Atreo (formerly, Mrs. Madeline Bouck) who will be teaching kindergarten. We also have Mrs. Tara Bosely who comes from Round School who will be
teaching Reading Recovery and Reading Support. We are so happy to have all of these
quality teachers join our Lakes family.
Finally, we will be hiring three new teachers to fill two first grade vacancies and one
teacher to fill a fourth grade vacancy over the summer. We will probably have them all
in place by the time this issue of Community Life comes out, but are in the process of
interviewing at the time of this writing. There are spectacular teaching candidates out
there and I have no doubt that we will find top notch teachers to fill these positions,
as is the standard in Hartland and at Lakes Elementary.
You will receive a letter from me sometime near the end of August, concerning teacher
assignments for the new school year, as well as other important information to know
before the first day. Some important dates to remember are:
September 1: Kindergarten Open House:
4:30 PM – 6:00 PM
September 7: First day of school for all students
As always, I have missed you all over the summer and can’t wait for school to begin
again! Enjoy the rest of your vacation and I will see you soon.

LEGACY News
Kirk Evenson, Principal
810.626.2104
The LEGACY Alternative School, located in Hartland, is an excellent educational
option for youth in and around the surrounding Livingston County area. Nearly
thirty years ago, Hartland opened the program and it still exists today because of
the strong philosophy and support from the Board of Education and the district
administration.
The program, located on the campus of the HESSC (Hartland Educational
Service Support Center), has successfully graduated hundreds and hundreds of
students that may have otherwise quit school without LEGACY. The program
boasts an impressive 85% graduation rate, truly one of Livingston County’s, and
Southeast Michigan’s, best kept secrets.
New to LEGACY this coming year will be physical education & health instructor, Mr. Scott Lemay. Mr. Lemay is a
graduate of Eastern Michigan University and is very active
sports and coaching. He will make a great addition to our
team of highly qualified instructors and staff.
The staff at LEGACY is second to none and has served
the youth of Livingston County with pride and much success, connecting with each student to foster a relationship
built on educational success. As a scheduling option for
Hartland High School students; LEGACY has provided a
small, warm, and friendly environment for at-risk students
to thrive. A typical student referral to LEGACY includes students that have not
had success in the traditional school and are in need of a more personal setting
to learn and grow.
Over the years, the LEGACY Alternative School has boasted several special
activities and projects that allow for student creativity and success, which include;
art classes, disc golf team, basketball, and job skill training, just to name a few.
The educational program in place at LEGACY is delivered differently than the traditional school setting, allowing for personal differences and individual support.
This past year, we proudly sent another 48 graduates into the world. We want
to invite you to come and visit to see if LEGACY is the right place for you or your
high school age student. Questions or concerns should be directed to Kirk Evenson
at 810.626.2140 or by email at [email protected]

Hartland Audubon Nature Club
Meetings and programs resume September 7
The Hartland Audubon Nature Club meets the first Tuesday of the month from
September through June. Our purpose is to promote the preservation of natural
habitats while fostering an understanding and appreciation of birds and other
wildlife. We’ll begin our 2010-11 season with some live birds from the Howell
Nature Center: an eagle, a rough-legged hawk, a kestrel and two or three owls. It
is an unforgettable experience to see these birds close up. Their eyes, made to see
minute details at long distances, are rather arresting when gazing across a room.
While the birds are sizing us up, we’ll be learning about their habitats, habits, and
how they came to be residents at the Nature Center.
Upcoming events include a photographic tour of the Galapagos Islands on
October 5, and our November 9 meeting will feature “Journey of the Cranes” starring the sandhill cranes of the Waterloo Recreation Area.
Our first meeting of this season will be held September 7 at the Senior Center
in the Hartland Education Support Service Center on M 59 just west of US 23.
The meeting will begin at 6:30pm to allow us plenty of time to enjoy all the pot
luck specials brought in by our members. Newcomers and guests are welcome.
Bring your children and grandchildren! The business meeting begins at 7:15pm
and the presentation will follow. For more information, please contact Jami Bond

Report cards are in for the mentoring program Big Futures facilitated by Big Brothers Big Sisters of Livingston County. Because of a grant provided by Community
Foundation of Livingston County, the agency was able to provide 125 elementary
students a mentor in the 5 school districts. Nineteen high school mentors volunteered their time once a week at Round Elementary school. The goal was to
provide a positive and supportive experience to children in need of improvement
in their academic performance and positive social interactions.
From November through March, “Bigs and “Littles” meet at the designated
location in an elementary school right after school is let out for the day. Once a
week for an hour, mentors and mentees work on homework and play board games
which teach cooperation and problem-solving. A Big Brothers Big Sisters Case
Manager is there to supervise the mentoring sessions.
At Round Elementary, 19 youth participated and completed the evaluation.
Ninety percent of them felt their grades had improved. Seventy-three percent felt
their interest in school was better. Eighty-four percent said their friendships were
better and 64% felt they were getting along with those at home better.
Big Brothers Big Sisters is hopeful that funding for this program will be obtained for the 2010-2011 school year. For more information call 517.546.1140.

Scouting News
Cub Scout Pack#380 News
Cub Scout Pack 380 is winding down from a year packed full of fun, safety, learning about engineering, racing and community service and now we are winding
up for a summer full of fun – like resident camp and summer picnics.
The scouts of Pack 380 had an awesome time building and launching their
rockets. We would like to send a very special THANK YOU to the family of Mr. and
Mrs. James Germaine for letting our scout’s blast off the rockets on their farm.
Our pack is again scheduled for a Submarine Overnighter. This will take place
in October. The boys will have the opportunity to sleep on a retired World War II
Submarine. This is one of the many exciting activities that are planned for this
upcoming year.
Our Round Up will again be held at Round Elementary, during the Open House.
We look forward to welcoming many new boys to the pack during the Round Up!
Incorporating learning with fun events is a part of what scouting is all about.
Any boy, grade 1-5, is invited to join our Pack for lots of fun while learning some
valuable life skills.
Contact Tom McMullen, Cubmaster, 248-887-6062, [email protected]
for more information.
Girls Scout Troop 41133
Congratulations to the young ladies of Troop 41133! In June, the girls completed
their time as Brownie scouts and participated in a ceremony to “Fly-Up” to
Junior scouts. They also completed and earned their Bridge to Junior Girl Scouts
Rainbow. The girls receiving their Rainbow were Brooke Bommarito, Madison
Cheney, Hailey Darling, Olivia Davenport, Ashley DiNobile, Kaylee Furge, Paige
Harde, Jocelyn Hankins, Sarah Klink, Rachel Ohrt, Briana Schumann, Erin Vimr,
Sydney Wesley and Lauryn Zvoch. In the fall, the new Juniors will begin another
chapter in their scouting adventures by helping their community and taking on
new challenging activities.
Lakes’ Cub Scout Pack 385
Lakes’ Cub Scout Pack 385 had a great summer, participating in the Memorial
Day Parade, then celebrating the end of the school year with a picnic. Many
boys attended the Cub Scout Day Camp in Brighton, and a large number also
attended the Resident Camp at Camp Munhacke. A great time was had by all! We
welcome everyone back to school – and extend an invitation to all 1st-5th grade
boys at Lakes and Farms. If you are interested in Scouting, we’d love to have you
join our Pack – watch for the fliers that will be sent home early in the school year!
Scouting is a great way to meet other families, to learn valuable skills and to just
have fun with events like the Pinewood Derby, Paper Airplane Fly-Ins, field trips,
camp-outs and the like.
Boy Scout Troop 380
Troop 380 wrapped up the school year with a successful fundraising golf outing – the
community support was outstanding! We thank everyone for their participation
and generosity: your support helps fund our troop’s activities! These young men
are truly striving to be our future leaders. June continued to be a busy month, as six
Scouts were elected to the Order of the Arrow (Cameron Comeau, Will Houtman,
Sean McCarthy, John Moraitis, Zach Piontek and John Rembisz). Nearly the entire
troop then headed off to camp at Cole Canoe Base, where they earned a number
of merit badges (which included Wilderness Survival, Emergency Preparedness,
Fish and Wildlife Management, Wood Carving and Leatherworking). The Scouts
also earned a number of camp awards – with special congratulations going to Dan
Gallagher for 1st place in Archery and to the entire troop for being recognized as the
“Honor Troop” – awarded to the troop that exemplifies the best community service,
camp participation and adherence to Scouting values. Activities died down a bit
in the summer, but we did have two Scouts finishing up their Eagle requirements
and another three steadily working on their Motorboating Merit Badge (fun!). Boy
Scouts is open to all boys who have completed the 5th grade. You do not need to
have participated in Cub Scouts (in fact, our most recent Eagle was never a Cub
Scout). If you are interested in joining, please contact Scoutmaster John Rembisz
at 517-545-5668 for more details. We typically meet Monday evenings from 7-9 pm.
Girl Scouts Receive GOLD Award
Victoria Buelow and Sarah Vicary have gone the distance in Girl Scouting and
earned their Gold Award. The Gold Award is the highest award a Girl Scout can
achieve. Both young ladies have earned it by developing a service project that
helped the Safe Town Program run by Hartland’s Community Education. This
project entailed the designing and building of two new buildings, a replica of the
Hartland Music Hall and Bank as well as updating the existing buildings. They
ladies had to create a budget, fund raise and then enlist support of their peers to
paint and build the structures. Victoria started Girl Scouts in kindergarten at the Lakes Elementary Daisy
troop . Sarah joined scouts in 1st grade in the Grand Rapids area, transferring to
the Round troop in 2000. The ladies met at the Farms where their Junior troops
merged. In the 6th grade Victoria and Sarah started working at the Safe Program
as volunteers. The Safe Town Program is for children 5 years old entering Kindergarten. The children learn about fire, road, bus and stranger safety. As part of
their project a scrapbook was put together outlining the activities that take place
at Safe Town. Victoria and Sarah have successful completed all of the Award Levels in scouting
Bronze, Silver and now the Gold. The Scouts were honored along with several of
their peers on May 16th at the annual Girl Scouts Heart of Michigan Celebration
of Leadership.

2009/2010 Michigan Olympic
Development Program Soccer Team
Over 150 boys born in 1997 tried out for the 2009 Michigan
Olympic Development Program (ODP) Soccer Team on
August 1-2, 2009 in Canton, MI. The goal of the ODP
tryout was to identify and develop soccer players capable
of competing at Olympic and International levels from
the State of Michigan. The boys that attended the tryout
were put through an extensive array of soccer drills and
scrimmages while being judged by coaches from throughout
the State of Michigan.
At the end of the second day of tryouts, 26 boys were
chosen to continue on training in hopes of making the final cut for the Michigan
ODP Team. The boys trained together in November, 2009 and once again in
January, 2010. Following the last training session, cuts were made and a team of
18 boys were chosen to represent the State of Michigan at the Region II ODP Camp
in Overland Park, Kansas the week of July 6, 2010. Region II ODP is comprised
of 14 states from the mid west. Each state sends their best players to Camp to be
evaluated by the National and Regional U.S. Soccer Coaching Staff. If chosen, they
could be invited to attend other regional events throughout the year.
Noah Kleedtke, a 7th grader at Ore Creek Middle School, has been chosen for
the 1997 Michigan ODP Soccer Team. He is very excited to represent the State at
the Regional Camp and looks forward to playing in front of soccer coaches from
all over the mid west. Noah currently plays for the Michigan Wolves U13 Soccer
Team. He has always loved the sport of soccer and hopes to continue playing it
for many years to come. Good luck to Noah and all the other ODP players that will
be traveling soon to Regional Camp to represent our State.
Boot Camp Fitness for Women
Still Running Strong
Hartland Community Education’s Boot Camp Fitness for Women is heading into its third
year and still running strong. This multi-faceted program combines fitness along with nutritional guidance and trainer support to help women of all fitness levels reach their goals.
Whether you’re new to fitness or haven’t worked out in years, if you are looking for support,
encouragement and motivation then Hartland Boot Camp Fitness is for you.
Boot Camp is a four-week program with new sessions running continuously. Campers
meet as a group with the trainers twice per week for a great workout with plenty of variety.
Boredom is never an issue! Campers are allowed an additional two classes of their choice
per week from the group fitness schedule.
Comments from a Boot Camper: “This class is a life-saver. I am stronger, more energetic, and much happier. This is not an “easy-way” to better health but it’s the only thing
that’s worked for me-and I’ve been trying to lose weight for the past 10 year!” Patti McRae
Many of our students who are new to Boot Camp tell us that they have read about the
program and have contemplated joining for a very long time, but they were nervous and not
sure it they would fit in. If this is you; if you’re looking for that little push; if you want to
re-claim your life through fitness and proper nutrition; if you want the encouragement and
support of women who are going through the exact same things; if you’re looking for help
from certified trainers who have been motivating and supporting women for years, then
wait no longer.
We’ve listened to your feedback and made a few changes to the program. Sessions are
now shorter, only 4-weeks running continuously through the fall and more affordable-only
$99. This way you can join whenever your busy schedule allows.
Classes are currently forming for the Fall Session and we’re happy to announce that
we have added a morning Boot Camp to the schedule that will include free childcare.
Comments from a Boot Camper: “I joined Boot Camp to lose weight and ended up
changing my life. I got ‘me’ back.” Sue Fitzpatrick
If you have any questions regarding Boot Camp Fitness for Women then contact the
Hartland Community Education office at 810.626.2150 and they will be happy to put you
in touch with a trainer. View schedule and sign up at hartlandcommunityed.org.
Hartland Pool offers
New 3-yr. old Class
The Hartland Pool is offering a new class designed to fit the needs of 3-year olds.
In the past, this age group has been included in Aqua Tots. However, some young
swimmers have already taken that class, or their swimming skills have advanced
beyond Aqua Tots.
Because of safety concerns due to the limited attention span of this age group,
parent and child will work together to learn as much as their child’s unique developmental abilities can take them.
The class is held in the 86-degree pool and limited to 5 children. Please note
that Pre-beginner and up classes are limited to age 4 and older, because they
are the first class a young swimmer does without a parent. Call the pool office at
810.626.2279 for more information or visit our website at www.hartlandschools.us
and follow the link to the aquatic center.
