Wrestling Room Request

Hi Guys,

Coach Phillips has requested some artwork in the wrestling area. Here's what he said,

"We would like to have wolverine paws drawn on a couple of walls and some quotes. Just anything you and your students could come up with, to help the team and school take pride in its sports and such. Please let me know, if you could help out with this."

Let's check out this space next time and see what we can come up with!

Artist

Hey Guys,
I just wanted to mention that I know an artist who does murels. She did a science murel at the wheeler science building and it was incredible. I no we are on a small budget but I just thought that I would put that out there.

inbetween the Middle, Upper school and the libary

We NEED, not want, NEED to hire one of those street artists who does the 3-D stuff and have him paint a hole with the bars partially broken and a WOLVERINE in the bottom.
WOLVERINE!

Bulletin Board in Courtyard

Okay so I know Mrs. Arjona mentioned this while we were touring last week, but I think we should do the cork board/bulletin board thing in the courtyard in front of the dining hall. I think it's an awesome idea and the seniors from last year who came back would probably really enjoy that we put their idea into action. It would make it a lot easier to post things more centrally and for people who are visiting Walker for athletic reasons or whatever.
