News for Friday, April 25th
April 25, 2014
Thanks for participating with us throughout National Classics week. Our hill for today, the Quirinal Hill, is named for Romulus, one of Rome’s founders, after his deified name, Quirinus. As the founder and king of Rome, Romulus led all of his people, including those less fortunate than himself. All roads lead to service, so take today to serve your town by volunteering and giving back to your community.
We won’t be here tomorrow, so here’s an announcement for tomorrow, the last day of National Classics Week: The Capitoline Hill is the “head” of Rome, so today is the day to cap off your celebrations and top the rest of the week’s activities with a final display of spirit and enthusiasm for Junior Classical League and the Classics. Today, show the world that the classics are still alive and thriving in the modern age.

Until next time, have a fancy Friday, Linganore.
