Great Parents Meeting

We had a fabulous parents meeting last Wednesday night, with just the right combination of "chance to talk" and getting new information. Melanie helped us think and share about our particular strengths that we bring to the parents group. We also began the conversation about what the Parents Group brings to the school and to each of us. Nat Shed came from the Friends Camp to share information with us about the wonderful opportunities for regular sleep-away (well, it didn't sound too regular, so perhaps I should say zany-fun sleep-away) camp for kids ages 7-18 and also family camp which welcomes adults and littler people. James spoke about reenrollment and we were reminded to keep thinking about creative fundraising possibilties. Currently, we have the opportunity to make %50 of returns on a special Fedco Seed Sale. And, Auction Donation Forms are available -- all creative ideas and donations welcome! Finally, we are planning a ****DANCE PARTY*** for the Feb 29th potluck evening and are hoping to organize a skating party, gymastics event (for younger children) and an event for older kids during the March in-service days. Official minutes will be circulated via e-mail (these were just my notes)...
