SUBJECT: The Bobcat Bulletin - October 16, 2026

Good afternoon, Birmingham Falls Families!

  • Thank you to all that came to the Bobcat Bash! It was packed and it was amazing seeing our community coming together and having fun! I hope it started your long weekend off on the right note. Thank you to the PTO for setting this up!
  • It has been great having community celebrities helping us open car doors and greeting buses when they arrive on some Wednesday mornings! Special thanks to the Varsity Cambridge Cheerleading Team and Football Team, The Varsity Miton Cheerleading Team, Football Team, and Marching Band, the Milton Police and Fire Department, and the Cambridge Feeder Cheerleading and Football Teams. It’s a fun start to the morning for sure!
  • Volunteer at BFES: Don’t forget, to work in the classrooms with children or read to children you must be volunteer trained. This training does not take long at all and helps to avoid hang-ups at the front desk when coming to volunteer your time.
