Fall sports schedules have been updated and are posted on the website under the current sports schedule tab. Here is the link as well. https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1O_Hj8m24Rh0rGTxCii3zQ2LrWF_9dWEn3eP9kNspybg/edit?usp=sharing
This the start of a new two year cycle, so locations and opponents will have changed from last year. This is an odd year with the way the calendar falls, so everything is a week later than last year, for example, the state volleyball tournament is a week later than it was last season.
Fall Sports practices begin on Monday, August 12th. Just a reminder that all athletes, Junior High and High School must have a current sports physical. ProActive will be at registration on August 5th offering physicals for $40. We hope everyone is having a great summer and excited for the start of a new year!
Last month five FFA members assisted the MCREA with serving food during their Annual Member Picnic. Weldon Valley FFA members worked with the Wiggins FFA to ensure the REA members had a speedy serving line.
Last week the Weldon Valley FFA Chapter sent two FFA members to attend the Washington Leadership Conference in Washington D.C. Kyra and Ellie both attended numerous workshop sessions as well as toured several National Monuments and the Nation's Capitol.
Starting Monday- 7/15, CDOT will be closing Hwy 144. This closure will be at the inter section of Rd 12 (Long Bridge Road) to work on Narrows Bridge. You must take an alternative route - CDOT suggests taking I-76 to Wiggins and backtracking on Hwy 39, which adds about 15 miles to your trip so please plan accordingly for additional travel time. This project is scheduled to take place over the next 1.5 months.
CDOT will also be working on the Bijou Bridge at the same time, this bridge will have a temporary signal to control traffic in a single lane. However- you won't get far, as the road will be completely closed at the Rd 12 and Hwy 144 intersection. Please travel safe!
Back to School Sales will begin soon! Check out the supply list for 24-25 right there --> https://5il.co/2qc8v Parents, while you're shopping, please keep in mind there is a dress code at Weldon Valley- shorts must have an IN-seam of 5 inches or longer, bellies must be covered, and straps on tank tops/dresses must be 2” or wider.

Here are some final group photos of our Weldon Valley travelers. We'd like to thank Larry Alexander for his expertise as our guide and Passports travel company for their support. Katy and Dale have been wonderful support from Passports and their owner David Markel for greeting us in Paris. We celebrated a birthday, an anniversary, and a special trip we will always remember.
Today is our last day in Paris as we are headed back home tomorrow. What a beautiful day with our trip to the countryside and our visit to Versailles. After our visit we headed back to Paris and we were able to see the progress on Notre Dame. After some shopping we had a lovely farewell dinner. We're sad to leave but happy to be coming back home to see our loved ones again.
Today our international group went on a walking tour of Paris. After that, the world famous Louvre. Seeing the Mona Lisa is quite the challenge, but some of us made it to the front. We also got to see two other great works of art, the Venus and Greek dude taking a selfie. Another great day that will end with a dinner cruise on the Seine.
Well the international travelers have arrived in Paris. Earlier in the day we stopped at a beautiful church then we made our way to Paris. After meeting the owner of our tour company, Passports, we had French Duck with crème brûlée for dessert. Our evening was spent ascending the Eiffel Tower.
The Weldon Valley travelers are still in France. Today we visited Chateau de Chenonceau. What an unbelievable experience and the gardens are amazing. Next we traveled to Amboise to see diVinci's final home. This part of southern France is a must see experience. Tomorrow we are headed to Paris.
The Weldon Valley international travelers visited Le Mont-Saint Michel Abbey. This is a UNESCO World Heritage Site that is unbelievable. Yes, we all climbed up the steps and marveled at this Medieval abbey.
Today the international travelers from Weldon Valley visited Omaha Beach in Normandy. What a moving experience. Tonight we are in St Malo enjoying a fabulous meal. Dessert tonight was Baked Alaska.
The Weldon Valley travelers have arrived in London. Here is the group from a couple of days ago in front of Buckingham Palace.
