Mr. Anderson: Good morning, students. This is Mr. Anderson with an important change. Field Day was planned for this Friday, but the weather report says heavy thunderstorms will roll through all afternoon.

Mr. Anderson: So Field Day will now take place next Tuesday instead. The events will be the same: the sack race, the tug-of-war, and the water balloon toss.

Mr. Anderson: Please remember to wear your class T-shirt and bring a water bottle with your name on it. If you signed up to help run one of the stations, Coach Salinas will meet with you in the gym on Monday during lunch.

Mr. Anderson: Thank you, and have a great day.
