new adopted family just north in Conroe, Texas and we need your help! There are many
slots to fill (60 to be exact) and your contribution will be forever remembered with these
adorable children at Armstrong Elementary. This tradition continues with your support by
devoting a little time, a pair of helping hands, and lots of love to help prepare a holiday party
that will bring smiles and cherished memories to adorable little children. There is no
experience required! Come be part of this wonderful occasion. It is an event you will not
want to miss! If you would like to volunteer please contact Marlene Killian at
[email protected] or 713-408-4821.
Continuing the Tradition of Giving at College Park High School
College Park High School and PTO have adopted CISD’s Armstrong Elementary, located north
of the Woodlands, to help provide much needed assistance, support and mentoring to
disadvantaged children.
College Park’s new adopted family Armstrong Elementary is considered a “Title 1” school
which is defined as a low social, economic school with little parental support. Over the past
four years, the College Park PTO has had the honor of orchestrating a holiday party for our
former adopted elementary school Runyan.
TWCP wishes to continue its tradition this year by helping to host another holiday party for
the whole Armstrong school, over 700 students! Each student will make an ornament or
similar craft, decorate cookies, enjoy a snack and participate in a book swap. This project,
being so large, will require the additional support of our school and community. We will
need craft supplies, snack items, and the sum of 725 age appropriate new reading books. By
making a cash donation, these funds will help pay for the items mentioned above and give
these children a wonderful, lasting memory.
You may choose to become a classroom Co-sponsor or a Grade Level Co-sponsor. For cosponsorship opportunities (families or businesses) see Donation Form. You can also help by
donating a new condition book for Pre-K through 4th grade level.
Please help The College Park PTO with this wonderful holiday project by donating new
books, sending a check (payable to TWCP PTO) or giving a few hours of your time to help
with the big event Thursday, December 18th. It will take a force to accomplish such a big
event, but the College Park Family always is willing to help others in need!
Books and checks can be turned in to the front office at CP.
For more information contact Marlene Killian at [email protected].

WOODLANDS RUGBY:
Rugby is a game that develops leadership, team spirit, courage, sportsmanship, and friendship. Garrett Soileau started playing rugby
his freshman year. Like most individuals who start playing rugby, he quickly fell in love and learned to play the game well. He was
selected for Texas High Performance teams every year and his senior year he played for the Rocky Mountain Challenge AllTournament Team and USA Rugby Stars and Stripes, reserved for the top 50 Boys and top 50 Girls selected from Regional All Star
Tournaments. In response to the question of what he loves most about rugby, Garrett explains, "The fact that everyone has the
chance to prove themselves. In rugby everyone has the chance to take the ball in for the score and feel what it’s like to put points on
the board for your team. Forwards have to be able to pass just as good as backs and backs have to be able to go blow up a ruck if
needed. You basically have to be able to play any position which isn't like any other sport out there. "To me rugby means
opportunity. This sport has given me so many opportunities that I would have never gotten if it weren't for rugby. Because of rugby
I've had the privilege to represent my state and even represent my country. I've made friends with people all over the United States
and even overseas because of all the opportunities rugby has presented me with." Garrett is perfect example of everyone getting a
chance to prove themselves in rugby. He most recently was invited to the U20 Junior Men's All American World Trophy team. He
also plays for Arkansas State University Rugby Team. Come check out the fastest growing sport in the nation with the largest
rugby club in Texas!
Woodlands Youth Rugby will hold tryouts each Wednesday in November from 6-8 pm at Alden Bridge Sports Park. Players
from all area schools are welcome.
Go to woodlandsrugby.org and do NOT miss out!
