PTO update:
Jump into the New Year at URBAN AIR!
Thursday, January 16, 2020 5:00pm - 8:00pm
FREE for all Whitin Intermediate School families. We have rented out the entire trampoline park. Urban Air will be closed to the public so there will only be Whitin families in the park.
Please go to https://urbanair.tray.com/signwaiver/64 to sign the waiver for your children to be able to enter the trampoline park. If you pre-sign the line will be much shorter which means your children will have more time to play.
