ANNOUNCEMENTS/TODAY'S EVENTS

Happy Groundhog Day, Eagle Nation.  February is often seen as a month of transition, an ideal time for renewed determination, self-love, and planting seeds of gratitude for the year ahead.  Unfortently Punxsutawney Phil saw his shadow, which could mean six more weeks of winter.  Let's hope he was wrong this year, and think Spring. We have turned the calendar to February, and we inch closer to warmer weather.  Congratulations to our Cheerleading Squad as they took First Place at the Scotia-Glenville Spirit Invitational.  Please also remember that Spring Sports Sign-ups will be happening soon.

Cows are cud-chewingly clever. Cows might not top most people’s lists for smartest animals, but that’s not their fault. Cows are secretly super-intelligent. They are capable of finding and remembering the best grazing and resting spots.  They can tell the difference between familiar and new objects, and can recognise people from pictures. Even young calves can use their spatial memory to solve puzzles. Possibly most impressively, they’ve kept their cleverness quiet, spending their days chewing cud rather than solving puzzles.

Today is National Groundhog Day!!!!!  

On this date in history:
  • In 1990, South African President F.W. de Klerk lifted the 30-year ban on the African National Congress, resulting in Nelson Mandela's release from prison and marking the beginning of the end of apartheid.
  • In 1943, the Battle of Stalingrad in World War II ended with the surrender of German troops to the Soviets.

  • In 1887, a group in Punxsutawney, Pennsylvania, searched for a rodent to predict the weather. They found a groundhog (named Punxsutawney Phil), who saw his shadow, which meant six more weeks of winter were imminent. If he hadn't, that would have meant spring was approaching. Groundhog Day's roots trace back to the Christian holiday Candlemas, a holiday dating to the 4th century, which was also based around predicting the weather.
  • In 1876, the National League, the oldest existing major league professional baseball organization in the United States, began play as the National League of Professional Baseball Clubs.
