Upcoming Events

On Thursday, October 10th our Volleyball Team will be hosting “Ace it for Asher” night during their games vs. Edgeley-Kulm which begin at 5:00 PM. Proceeds from this fundraiser will be given to the family of Asher Sorrels. Asher Ryan Sorrels, son of Tony and Emma ‘Leier’ Sorrels and brother to Easton and Edison, was diagnosed with hypoplastic left heart syndrome (HLHS) at 20 weeks. HLHS is a birth defect that affects normal blood flow throughout the heart with the left side not functioning properly. Asher had two of three surgeries at the Children’s Hospital in Minneapolis before going into heart failure. He has now been added to United Network for Organ Sharing (UNOS) as a 1A status for pediatric heart transplant and will remain in the hospital until a heart becomes available. After overwhelming support of this t-shirt fundraiser it was decided to open it up again for additional orders. All t-shirt proceeds will go directly to the Asher Sorrels family to help cover medical and traveling expenses along this journey. *Please see order form for more details and watch our facebook page for additional information closer to the benefit.

Looking forward to a great week of fun and comradery at Linton Public School!
