MHS Volleyball Fundraiser
by: Leah Poulos
The McFarland High School Volleyball team is currently conducting a fundraiser. The funds we raise will be used to help supplement the cost of equipment, team apparel, and other non-budgeted expenses. While our school district does an excellent job of recognizing the needs of our program, we still need to raise the funds necessary to off-set higher costs. So we are turning to our families, our friends, and our community for help. Please take 5 minutes and donate whatever you can; even the smallest donation makes a huge difference. Things we will use the money for: - Team backpacks and warm ups - Program t shirts and team apparel - In season events/team bonding/building activities - New equipment (tripod, boxes, ipad case) - Stat program and video review subscriptions Another way to help us would be to spread the word by sharing this request via social media, e-mail, and text messaging. It makes a difference and will help us create opportunities for all of our student-athletes. Thank you for your consideration! - McFarland Volleyball Program

Stand with Buffalo's African American Community
by: Brian Ward
On Saturday, May 14th, a self-described white supremacist drove 200 miles to Buffalo, New York to shoot open-fire in a supermarket in a historically Black neighborhood. The 18-year old killed 10 people, and injured 3. All those that were killed were African American and the federal government is investigating this as a hate crime. Currently, the supermarket is closed, and many Buffalo citizens now have to travel far to access a grocery store. For more information check PBS's news coverage here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SvLWNX_jXCk The McFarland High School Black Student Union (BSU) is holding a fundraiser to donate money to the Buffalo community.

Drift with Us!
by: Traci Tucker
Every May, the Driftwood Creative Arts Anthology club at McFarland High School publishes an anthology of student creative work. Over the course of the school year, students submit poetry, short stories, personal essays, song lyrics, paintings, photography, drawings, and even doodles! The club collects, reviews, edits, and then designs the anthology for publication. This will be Driftwood's 18th year of publication. Driftwood Club members have also attended (and won awards at!) events such as the UW-Whitewater Creative Writing Festival as well as submitting to writing contests such as the Bennington College Young Writer's Awards and the Wisconsin Fellowship of Poets annual student contest. However, publishing this unique, award-winning anthology and giving club members these amazing opportunities, comes at a cost. We are hoping to find community leaders who will support literacy and the arts at McFarland High School by becoming a Driftwood sponsor. There are 3 levels of support for Driftwood listed in the Rewards section of our campaign. Individual Sponsors and/or companies will be listed under our Driftwood Sponsors page at the beginning of the anthology and have the opportunity to include an advertisement for their company within the anthology. Any donation, large or small, is greatly appreciated. Happy Reading! - The Driftwood Staff Follow us on Instagram! @mcfdriftwood Visit our Website: https://sites.google.com/mcfsd.org/driftwood

2021 McFarland Choir Program/Musical Cabaret
by: Paul Gregg
This year the McFarland High School Choir Department chose to present excerpts from nine Broadway musical shows as part of a Musical Cabaret! Actors were cast from choir members who volunteered to participate. Members of the PAC Pack came in to help with lighting, sound, set construction, and logistics. The MHS Production team of Paul Gregg, Brooke Hauser, and Patrick Fernan took Director duties. Nick Nyderek, Joe Hartson, and Ben Peterson provided musical accompaniment. Costumer Bernie Friedman and Lighting Designer Mike Tallman were also on board! Students were masked and socially distanced for rehearsals, and blocking and choreography maintain this distancing to the greatest extent possible. When it came time to film with our friends at WMCF, students were either be masked or filmed individually as scenes allowed in order to keep all students and the production team safe. Our district provided approved "clearmasks" which we painted to match students' skin tones. The project was daunting, and in a year where so little seemed possible this grew into so much! Even though the annual Cabaret is the choir's biggest fundraiser, Mr. Gregg decided this would be a presentation made available to as many as possible. The budget came to about half our usual musical budget, and we are relying on the donations of our community and supporters to help us meet the costs and (hopefully) provide some fundraising for the choir program next year. In May the choirs will record the curricular music we've worked on all year as part of a yearlong learning plan called "Service Music". Donations will also help the choir program hold their annual fall retreat.

While we can’t golf together this year, we hope you will consider “chipping in” to support the students in our community. UPDATE 7/21/20: Due to our current situation, we have modified our sponsorship levels.

It Takes A Village to Educate: Together With Tanongou
by: ANGELA BAZAN
The World Geography class at McFarland High School has been learning about the village of Tanongou, in Benin, Africa. We are working to raise $3000 to support education in the village by sponsoring scholarships for students to attend school and learn a skill. We are also hoping to help fund the cost of birth certificates so students may continue their education. In Benin, students must take a test after 6th grade to be admitted to the next level. In order to take the test, they need a birth certificate, or they are not allowed to continue their education. As many are born in the village, a birth certificate is costly to obtain and travel to the city is difficult. We know that education is the key to success, and we are grateful for the education that we have. Please help us to spread that knowledge around the world- It truly takes a village to help another!

It's Electric: Light Up Tanongou!
by: ANGELA BAZAN
The World Geography Class at McFarland High School is working to raise money to place solar panels in the village of Tanongou- located in Benin, West Africa. While we are used to the daily luxuries that electricity provides, such as lights, cellphones, technology, and stoves for cooking, the village of Tanongou has no electricity at all. Students who go to school all day are expected to contribute to their family's survival by helping in the home and fields after school. By the time they are able to study in the evening, it is too dark, making it near impossible to do so. Tanongou is also located near the largest game preserve and natural waterfall in Africa. The ability to get tourists to come off the path and into the village would promote economic tourism and give jobs to the people of the village. Having electricity would encourage tourists to stay in the village and provide all with a better way of life. Our goal of raising $2230 would allow us to place six solar panels in the village and change the lives of the people in Tanongou forever. Please help us change the world!
