Leave Your Mark at Redwood!
If you haven't had a chance to visit Redwood’s Lunch Plaza, take a minute to go take a look! It's paved with hundreds of inscribed bricks, commemorating those who've attended Redwood in the past. Each year we intend to provide you the opportunity to purchase a brick paver of your own, with the inscription of your choice. We'll see that it's properly inscribed and installed prior to commencement! All you need to do is fill out the order form, and provide payment. This can be done on-line using PayPal or through the mail (to view and print order form click here), using a check. Deadline to place orders to be installed prior to 2010 commencement is March 1, 2010. Don’t be left out! Questions, or an offer to assist with this project? Contact Robin Moller or Keri Pardella.

Thanks to everyone -- parents, staff, administrators, students, alumni, and community members -- who donated to the cause and/or who purchased inscribed bricks and tiles for the benches, tables, and planters for the plaza. It is becoming a beautiful shaded place for students to eat, hang out and study, and for school and alumni groups to hold outdoor receptions. To purchase an inscribed brick for the Lunch Plaza place your order before March 1, 2010, for installation prior to commencement in June 2010. Inscribed bricks will continue to be installed on an annual basis each spring. ORDER a brick, table or tree:     » Cash: Order online with PayPal     » Checks: Order/Donation Form (PDF)
