We enjoyed seeing everyone at the September meeting. The food was great - thank you board members! Also, thank you to Sara Holland, Shannon Croft, and Alina Gaubert for helping with the setup on Wednesday afternoon. It goes very quickly when we have a few extra hands to help.
Please join us at the October meeting for more good food and prizes. Don't forget to sign the early bird sheet when you come in. If you have a chance, drop by and help us setup on the Wednesday afternoon before the meeting at 3:30. Thanks for you help and we'll see you in October!

Council Delgates

Nancy and I already had our first
council meeting and are excited about what the school district is
planning for the year. The Clothes Closet is a VERY
important part of the C-FBISD and we can help out. The Clothes Closet
is available to children and their families in our school district that
are in need of items. In the event of a fire, natural disaster, etc.
We help out by continuously collecting clothes to be donated. You can
bring them to the General Meetings or call Nancy or myself to get them.
The other way we help them is by volunteering a few hours on a
designated day to help sort and fold donated clothes, help clean up a
little and help people shop if necessary. Our scheduled day is
Wednesday, October 17. We will have sign-up sheets in the notebooks
for volunteers.
I also mentioned in the first newsletter the Taste Test. The council
has decided not to do that this year but instead to a book drive. They
are patterning this after the Richardson ISD which has done this for 18
years and now successfully raises around $40,000 for their scholarship
programs. Our council is still working out the fine details and has NO
intention of raising $40,000 this year but would like everyone's help in
getting this started and continuing this annually. They will take all
used books in sellable condition, no magazines or newspapers, coloring
books, pamphlets, National Geographic or college text books. The good
news is that as a PTA we will also benefit from this. They will pay
each PTA $.05 per book donated, they will also pay our PTA if we have
volunteers to work the book sale. They collect the books and sell them
at a book sale for no more that $1.00 per hard back and less for paper
backs and kids books. Start setting those books that you don't want
anymore aside. We will start collecting those soon so stay tuned.
