On Sept. 26, 2016 we had our annual PTA fundraiser carnival.  Thanks to all the families who came out and supported this community event.  We had 10 blow up rides, a rock wall, many games, face painting, delicious food, a bake sale and a silent auction.  We appreciate all who donated items for the bake sale and auction!  This is where we earn the bulk of our money to run the activities for the school year.  We also appreciate all those who purchased baskets and other auction items.  We had a wonderful evening with perfect weather!  We are excited to use these funds to run activities like: Dad's and Donuts, Anti-bully week, Red ribbon week, Health and Safety week, Teacher Appreciation week, SEP Dinners, Mom's and muffins, Field Day, Read-a-thon, Reflections and Emergency preparedness.  We have a fantastic community to support and help with these events.  Thanks so much!Hobble Creek PTA

The 2nd grade went to Farm Field Days in Lehi, that was sponsored by local farmers and the USU Extension Service.  We saw farm animals and learned how our food is grown.
