We have two parent ed programs scheduled. The first program is
scheduled for Saturday, April 13 at 10:00 AM. It will be held at
Aldersgate United Methodist Church. Maria Mitchell of
Efficient Cleaning will show us how to clean our homes quickly and
efficiently and how to control clutter! I know that I definitely need that
these days!
The second program is planned for Tuesday, April 16 at 7:00 PM at the
Carrollton-Farmers Branch ISD Technology and Learning Center. Gayle Moore
the Reading Recovery Coordinator along with a team of teachers will show us
how to provide our children with hands-on literacy (reading and writing)
activities. The program will be geared to preschool-aged children. Gayle
Moore had a similiar program for us last year and it was full of really good
activities. You won't want to miss this!

All Around Dallas

All Around Dallas is headed west this month--to the Fort Worth Zoo.
Let's
meet there at 10:30 AM on Saturday, March 16th. The zoo's newest exhibit,
Texas Wild, opened last summer and is worth the trip to Fort Worth! Texas
Wild covers eight acres and features 300 animals, and its interactive
displays of Texas' natural features and history could keep you busy all day.
And there are new restaurants (Dickey's, Pizza Hut) and a train! And I
haven't even mentioned all the other great exhibits (OK, I love the tiger
exhibit with the waterfall).
Tickets are $8.50 for adults, $6 for children 3-12 years old, and free for
children 2 years and under. We can get a discount if there are 15 or more
in our party, so RSVP to me by March 11. For more information, check out
the zoo's website at
www.fortworthzoo.com.

Thank you to everyone that brought food to the February meeting. It was all
yummy! Also, a big thanks to all that helped setup and cleanup before and
after the meeting. We certainly appreciate your help. It's hard to believe we
only have three meetings left before summer. We hope to see you at all of
them. Don't forget that we can always use an extra hand in setting up the
Thursday before the regular meeting. We meet at the church at 3:30. It only
takes about 15 minutes. See you in March!
