Students at Andrew Elementary School came together to celebrate Make a Difference Day on Friday by engaging in meaningful service projects that support the Ronald McDonald House Charities (RMHC). The day was filled with creativity, teamwork, and community spirit as students worked on a variety of activities designed to help families in need.

I hope this message finds you well!

I’m reaching out to share an exciting opportunity for all K–5th grade girls and boys in your school community. We’re launching a brand-new Cub Scout Pack—Pack 3238—right in Maquoketa, and we’d love to invite your students to our “Fishing with Friends” event happening this Saturday, October 25, 2025, at Horseshoe Pond!

Attached is a virtual flyer with all the details. It’s a fun, free event designed to introduce families to Cub Scouting in a relaxed and friendly setting. We’re working hard to get this new pack up and running to serve the youth in your community, and events like this help us connect with families who might be interested.

We will be transporting our whole grade share kids on Monday, 10/20/2025, to their prospective schools of Bellevue Middle School and High School, and Maquoketa Middle School and High School. We will have 2 bus drivers driving routes to pick up kids. They will meet at the Andrew School just like every morning to switch kids to the correct shuttles. Lonny and Jay will be calling the parents as well to let you know pick-up times, as they will be different.
