January 11-13th Weekend


 
This Weekend in Blythewood
January 11th, 12th, 13th
We're welcoming some guests to Blythewood next week and congratulating a grand accomplishment! With springlike weather....what could be better than a weekend in Blythewood?
Is there a Doctor in the house?
There is at Blythewood Middle School! Congratulations to Brenda Hafner, Principal of BMS, on receiving her Doctorate of Education! The eight years of work concluded December 12, 2012....yes, 12.12.12...and the degree was conferred on her on December 31, 2012.
The next time you ring up the middle school...be sure to ask if the Doctor is in.
Kudos to Dr. Hafner for all her hard work!!! We are so proud!!

Did you know that the USC Gamecock Equestrian Team calls Blythewood home over on Syrup Mill Road? The two time National Champions will be starting the spring portion of their schedule in February and we look forward to supporting these ladies and their coach Boo Major as they train and compete for a possible third National Championship. Stay tuned for dates and information on their competitions with Texas A & M and Delaware State. They'll have the 'home stable' advantage so plan to come out and support!
Dates and times will be announced soon.
Enjoy the Weekend!
Bienvenidos a Blythewood!!
This week we want to join Blythewood and Westwood High Schools in welcoming nine exchange students visiting from Cali, Colombia, South America. The students will spend 10 weeks in Blythewood, living with their sponsoring families. They will attend classes at BHS and Westwood and will have extraordinary opportunities to travel our state and make life-long friends. We say 'Welcome to Blythewood'! Enjoy your stay in our wonderful little town!
Coming in March!
