Our
first meeting was great! Thank you to Karen Christiansen for planning the
games. They were a lot of fun and the members got to know each other a little
better. The CECPTA off and running now! The Board and Special Interest
Group Leaders spend time planning fun activities and outings for our members.
Plan
on attending our annual Fall Fest on the 18th this month. Kids can wear their
costumes while playing games and making treats! Check out all the info in
this newsletter.
In November we will have our Silent Auction. We
have already received many donations from local businesses (tickets, gift
certificates, etc.) These items will be auctioned off during our November
meeting. This is so much fun and you can get some excellent deals! Some
of the best donations come from our members. Check your closets for any
gifts or home decor that you haven't used often. Maybe put a few things
together in a basket. You can get rid of it and help the PTA too! I know
we have many talented members who can donate handmade gifts as well as baked
goods. Please bring your donations to the October meeting. I'll
have a sign up sheet for baked goods.
I
know there are plenty of wonderful activities planned for this month. I
hope you'll try to attend as many as you can. It's the easiest way to get
to know other members! The best resource parents have are each other.
