Good Morning!!!

Hutch found out we only did 277 votes more than West Street even though collectively logged just over 7000 votes yesterday (nice work!).    He knows we can log in more votes than that since together we logged even more than 10,000 votes on Tuesday!  Hutch doesn't want us to take our lead for granted!


Thomas Marks is currently in 1st place.  This is the final weather word for the November contest.  We are in the home stretch but there are 3 critical days of voting left.  Please do not slow down this weekend.  It wouldn't take much for West Street to take over 1st place.  This is our last chance so to own the contest!!!  The last day of voting is on Sunday, November 21st at 8 p.m.  Please vote as much as you can all weekend long.  Let's get voting!!
 
Voting Hint:  For those who do a lot of internet searches and are use to opening a couple of windows at a time, try opening more than one window with the weather machine website.  Vote on one page and submit and while that page is refreshing, go to the next page and vote and submit, then repeat!  It works great!  Many more votes per minute!  Still remember to make sure that the correct school and county are on the page.  We don't want to vote for another school!

Thank you so very much for all of your time and effort in helping us in our quest to bring Andy Parker and his Weather Machine to Thomas Marks Elementary.

Good Morning!!!

 
Hutch is a very happy pirate   !  All you collectively surpassed his challenge of 8000 votes!   Congratulations!  However  Hutch increased today's Battle Cry Challenge  to log 9,000 votes today!  He knows you can do it because Tuesday we logged even more than 9,000 votes! 
 
We are back in 1st place but its not safe yet as we have 4 more days of voting left and our lead isn't that great just yet!  West Street could easily take back first place just as we did .  It's not over until Sunday Nov. 21st at 8 p.m.
 
 We can do this – we have it in us to win!!!!  I'm not slowing down and I hope you are not going to either!   Let's own this contest!  Let's get voting!!

Good Morning!
We have fallen into 2nd place.  As of right now we are 1,193 votes behind.There is no
 
reason why we cannot catch up and own first place once again tomorrow.  Vote as many
 
times as you can today.

Just 6 more days of voting.  It’s time to give the final push of this month’s contest.  I’m not giving up or slowing down and I hope you are not either.  The last day of contest is Sunday, Nov. 21st at 8 p.m.  We can do this – we have it in us to win!!!!   

It’s a nail biter of a contest and its not over until its over.

Battle Cry Challenge: Hutch (our school mascot) says,  "Pull out all the votes you possibly
can".  Vote until your hands drop off!  Collectively we need to put in 6000 votes in the
basket today in order to surpass it.  West Street put in 5100 votes in their basket
yesterday.  Lets get voting!

Sorry this is so late/

Good Morning!

ANDY PARKER’S WEATHER MACHINE + THOMAS MARKS = AN AWESOME SCIENCE LESSON!!

We are still in First Place!  But barely!  Andy mentioned on the show that we are only 300 votes apart.

This is the last week of voting.  It’s time to give the final push of this month’s contest.  I’m not giving up or slowing down and I hope you are not either.  The last day of contest is Sunday, Nov. 21st at 8 p.m.  We can do this – you’ve all proved it this week that we have it in us to win by
staying in first place!!!!   It’s a nail biter of a contest! 
Challenge:  Okay so at this point we didn’t make Friday’s challenge, but we did manage to stay ahead not by much.  Friday we were just shy of 4000 votes.  So my challenge for today remains the same:  that we collectively tally a total of 5000 votes today.  My gut feeling tells me we can make this challenge.  It would put us that much more ahead of West Street.  Find another  new friend(s) to help us vote during this last week of voting.  If you are on Facebook, please inform your friends about our quest for Andy’s Weather Machine.   What a great way to get your friends to vote and they can get friends to vote too!!!   We need to really push it this week.   

Remember:  If you are using a short cut - please make sure that the Thomas Marks is on the voting ballot.  Sometimes the ballot changes to Alfred Almond or Barker and guess what?  You just voted for another school!  We don't want that.....

I'm going for 150 votes today and 200 tomorrow, 250 if the Bills win.

Since Heidi is originally from Buffalo,i'm sure she'll be happy if the Bills win.

Thanks for all your votes!

We are on thin ice in first place.  There are only 103 votes separating us from West Street!
I’m not giving up or slowing down and I hope you are not either.  This contest isn’t over until Sunday, Nov. 21st at 8 p.m.  We can do this – you’ve proved it this week that we have it in us to win!!!!   

New Challenge:  I’ve noticed that the number of daily votes that collectively everyone (the school district, kids, families, businesses, friends from far and near) is doing approximately  3500 plus votes daily.  My challenge is that collectively we tally a total of 5000 or more votes each day this weekend.  Plus find a new friend(s), to help us vote during this last week of voting.  If you are on Facebook, please inform your friends about our quest for Andy’s Weather Machine.  What a great way to get your friends to vote, and they can get friends to vote too!!!   We need to really push it this next week.

ANDY PARKER’S WEATHER MACHINE + THOMAS MARKS = AN AWESOME SCIENCE LESSON!!

We are in first place, however West Street Elementary is tugging on our shirt tails in second place .  We are not in a comfortable first place spot.   Keep those votes coming in fast and furious today!   If you can get others on board from any company, your office, friends, family on board please pass on the word of the day!  This has become a nail biter contest!
We need to secure our lead!   Today’s challenge is a “battle cryâ€� challenge as my husband would call it.  Last night I voted  5 hours while watching TV.  My battle cry challenge is for you to beat that time today and tonight.     I know I’m asking a lot, but I want to wrap this up this month!   We have it in us do win!!!!!!     (I also know you think I’m nuts). 

Remember:  If you are using a short cut - please make sure that the Thomas Marks is on the voting ballot.  Sometimes the ballot changes to Alfred Almond or Barker and guess what?  You just voted for another school!  We don't want that.....
