What's new - Summer 2009
Letter from the Committee
The June Issue! It is hard to believe another year is ending. I hope you'll be able to join us at CafeJags on June 25th to toast our successes. I am excited that we'll still be able to connect with friends this summer with all the great activities we have been working hard to plan. I can not thank the field trip coordinators enough for all their efforts.
Tracy Sopchak, our Editor Extraordinaire, is publishing her last official newsletter. Tracy's tireless efforts over the years to put together our group's primary means of communication have been incredibly valuable. Tracy took over the newsletter, reformatted and made it into the fantastic publication it is today. Many many thanks, and we're grateful you've agreed to help us transition in the new team. Sandra Markovitz has stepped up as Co-Editor and is looking for someone to share the responsibilities. See inside for our volunteers needed postings for more details.
We also want to thank everyone that has volunteered to help make Parents of Tots first year running the Children's Games at the Festival by the Lake one to remember. Holly Lannen has done a great job leading the team, Honey Rossi and Peggy Macaluso have been terrific in assisting. We look forward to a great event and hope to see everyone at our booth.
Robin Zimnick deserves thanks too for her efforts in planning the Hoots and Howls trips this year. The Zimnicks have plans to move out of state; we wish them luck and appreciate the good times we had together.
We'll be meeting on August 6th to plan our 2009/2010 year. We hope you can join us as the more folks that get involved the better. We'll send out details of where the meeting will be held via email a few weeks before. We have also published our 2009-2010 meeting schedule in this newsletter, as were trying to host meetings on varying weeknights to draw members in.
Enclosed please find our Summer Adventure Guide. We printed some of our favorite parks and summer destinations for you to have on hand. Thanks to Roxanne and Heather for compiling and everyone who offered suggestions.
Have a great summer!
