Winter Challenge

The purpose of the CCSD66 Winter Challenge is to ignite a passion in our district residents for reconnecting with nature during the winter months, while also fostering collaboration and strengthening our sense of community!

Post your creations to #CCSD66WinterChallenge and #ccsd66

We'd love for you to document your snow art or fort/igloo by taking a few pictures of it. Make sure you have enough to showcase any special themes, details, or features! Once you have your picture(s), please CHOOSE ONE of the following ways to share your creation:

a. Use Twitter to post the picture(s). Be sure to include #CCSD66WinterChallenge and #ccsd66

b . Email the picture(s) to

Ide: Mrs. Fitzgerald - cfitzgerald@ccsd66.org

Prairieview: Mrs. Sanchez asanchez@ccsd66.org

Lakeview: Mrs. Grove jgrove@ccsd66.org

This activity is meant to be fun! This will hopefully add some extra cheer during the long winter months as all community members can admire the works of art throughout the area. By no means, should anyone EVER purposely destroy anyone's work! Encourage creativity do not destroy it...leave that to the natural elements of weather! *Consider looking ahead at weather conditions to help plan your works of art and fort designs! Freezing point of water is 32 degrees Fahrenheit!
