July Social

The July Social & Pool Party will be on Friday July 18th from 10:00 until noon at Lisa Rowell's house. Please come socialize and enjoy the pool and the great backyard play area with your kids, and bring a snack to share with everyone if you would like. The Rowells have a neat play room as well as a swingset and fort, a sandbox, and a sand/water table in the back yard, so the kids will have lots to do. Don't forget to bring a change of clothes for the kids as well as your sunscreen and swimming gear! To get there, go South on Josey Lane and turn left (east) at Keller Springs. Take a left on Carmel (just after the construction for the new Home Depot) and then turn right on Springwood. Take another right onto Springwood Way, and then right again on Tiburon Drive. The Rowell's house is at the end of the cul-de-sac at 2104 Tiburon Drive. If you have a chance, please RSVP to Lisa at (972) 418-9630 or rowell2@attbi.com if you plan on coming, so that Lisa will know how many to plan for. See you there!

August Social

The August Social & Pool Party will be on Friday August 1st from 10:00 until noon at Lee Trimble's neighborhood pool in the Homestead Subdivision. There is a shaded area with a shallow wading pool that is just perfect for the little ones, and also a big pool for the older siblings. Please bring your pool toys, some food to share, and again, don't forget your sunscreen and swimming gear! To get there, take Josey north of Rosemeade. Enter the Homestead neighborhood on Countryside (a split entryway with 4 flags) and take Countryside until the second right at Windmill Trail. The poolhouse is at the corner of Countryside and Windmill. Please RSVP to Lee at (972) 492-2490 or lee.trimble@verizon.net to let her know you're coming or for better directions. See you there!

Family Fun

Family Fun events will be replacing Daddy & Me activities for our new 2003-04 year. Of course, Daddies are still welcome and encouraged to come, but we didn't want the Mommies to feel excluded from the fun! These events are planned with the entire family in mind. For July and August, the summer activities we chose just happened to fall on weekday evenings, but hopefully these events will be on Saturdays for the rest of the year so that it will be easier for everyone to fit into their busy schedules.

JULY
How about a free concert in the park on Monday, July 28th at 7:00 p.m. with the Plano Community band? The 100-member band offers free family-oriented concerts at the Plano YMCA on Tennyson Parkway near Preston Road in West Plano. Bring your lawn chairs, a picnic basket, let the kids romp, and get ready for some good ol'-fashioned Americana. It's a great way to enjoy the outdoors and listen to sensational music performed by a full concert band! Arrive early for the best seating locations.

AUGUST
Let's take the kids to see the new Frisco RoughRiders Minor League Baseball Team play the El Paso Diablos at the Dr. Pepper/Seven Up Ballpark on Monday, August 18th at 7pm. One of the best deals is to purchase the Kroger Family Pack, which includes four tickets for the grass berm area, two RoughRiders baseball caps and vouchers for four gallons of milk and four loaves of bread from Kroger. The cost is $24.95. Or tickets can be purchased for $5 each if purchased separately through Ticketmaster (they will charge a surcharge) or by going to the Home Plate Box Office at the ballpark (no surcharge). To get the Kroger Family Pack, call (972) 731-9200 and charge by phone, or purchase on game day at the Box Office. To purchase tickets individually through Ticketmaster, call (214) 373-8000.

Hospitality

Victoria Hubbard (972) 394-7651

We want to welcome all those new members who have joined our organization since the May general meeting. As an early reminder, the September general meeting will feature a brunch, so keep an eye out for all tasty recipes. Also, this year there is only one person chairing the Hospitality committee. Therefore, we are asking that everyone take a turn with setting up before the meetings and cleaning up afterward. We will be passing a sign-up sheet during the first meeting so that everyone can have an opportunity to help out. Have a great summer and we'll see ya in September!!
