Super Bowl Sunday & Michael Robinson Day

While all of the snow days and delays over the past couple of weeks
were very nice, I was so glad that both students and staff were all at school on Friday. Why? Because Friday was Michael Robinson Day at Varina!

Everyone wore their Seahawks gear, team colors, or a Michael Robinson football camp t-shirt, which most of us picked up extras of the day before spirit day!

Many news crews, the Times Dispatch and a representative from the Henrico paper all came to document the festivities during lunch...when the students could sign the banner (see below) and grab some Seahawks cookies!

There was also a video recording of Michael Robinson giving a shout out to Varina that played on our TVs all day (we had it memorized pretty quickly! :) , so that was pretty cool, too!

Needless to say, this has been a very exciting year for Richmond leading up to the Super Bowl...with 2 of the Seahawks players coming from Richmond--very cool!


Two of these banners were made; one was hung up behind our desks in the office and one was down in the cafeteria. Students and staff all signed them, and they will be laminated and sent to him!



Ukrops made this terrific cake!
 

As well as tons, and I mean TONS, of these delicious cookies!!
 

After school, wearing my Seahawks gear from the day.
