GLOVES, SCARVES & HATS DRIVE
Eastview’s Student Council is collecting new and gently used gloves, scarves and hats. Items will be donated the House of Charity (Minneapolis).

MOMS & NEIGHBORS
Since its inception 10 years ago, Moms & Neighbors has raised more than $250,000 for teens and families in ISD 196.
We work closely with local school counselors, social workers, church advocates, and law enforcement. We want to be an additional tool in their tool box to provide local families or teens with the assistance they truly need, while respecting their privacy.
Assistance can range from grocery and gas gift cards, clothing, to payment of an overdue bill. Though what we give varies as much as our recipients’ needs, it is always rewarding and surprising to see how powerful an anonymous act of kindness can be.
If you are interested in helping this holiday season, click on the link or contact Angie Talbot, the Eastview Moms and Neighbors Kindness Ambassador.

(NEW) (Nov. 27) EASTVIEW HIGH SCHOOL BOYS JUNIOR VARSITY HOCKEY FALLS TO CHASKA 3-1
Eastview (0-2) couldn't generate enough offense to overcome a close game Wednesday afternoon in Chaska. Sophomore goaltender Max Leach played well making some big saves while limiting Chaska to a single first period goal. After killing off a five-on-three Chaska power play, EV evened things up 1-1 with an early second period goal by junior forward Max Hansen (assisted by sophomore forward Cody Domagalski). Unfortunately, for the second time in two games, EV allowed a shorthanded goal that put Chaska up 2-1 at the end of the second period. Chaska scored the lone third period goal with 3:43 left on the clock to seal the victory. Next up, Eastview hosts Lakeville South on Thursday, December 5. Puck drops at 5:00 p.m. at Apple Valley Sports Arena.
