Helix Parents/Guardians - Carson Propane was on-site this afternoon and checked all our tanks and fittings. They did not find a leak, but the technician believes the release valve may have frozen open for a short period of time on one of the tanks which released a small amount of propane after today's fill up. I double checked the tanks and found no odor of propane. If weather permits, I expect students will be on the playground tomorrow. Thank you!
