What's new - September 2010
Letter from the Committee
Hello Parents of Tots!
Here we are at the beginning of another year at PoT. It is hard to believe this summer is quickly coming to an end and the kids are heading back to school. We enjoyed a HOT summer filled with great fieldtrips and events! Thanks to all who were able to participate.
The W.C.N.A.’s Festival by the Lake in June was a great success again this year even with the on and off rain showers through out the afternoon. We were able to raise just over $1,000. With these proceeds we are working with North Suburban Child and Family Resource Network (formally North Suburban Family Network) to help sponsor an event in the near future, we’ll keep you posted.
PoT’s Weekly Playground Playdate has been a popular destination for members throughout the summer. We will continue to meet during the next few months while the weather is still warm at the Sullivan Park off Salem Street in Wakefield. Check out the details in the PoT Playgroups section for September’s Weekly Playground Playdate.
Wednesday, September 15th come out and celebrate Parents of Tots 27th year at our annual kickoff event. Our Events planning team has been busy making this a great event open to both members and non members. If you have a friend who’s thinking about joining Parents of Tots bring them along too. Check out the details inside for the kickoff and all the other fun trips and activities planned for this month. Hope to see many of you there!
We also wanted to wish a warm welcome to our newest committee members: Robyn Griffin, Leigh Farber, Kara Burgess, Heather Kelley, and Helen Moore. Thank you to all who help and participate on the PoT committee. If you are interested in joining in the fun check out the available committee positions inside or just join us at the next meeting, September 14th.
Lastly, we wanted to apologize to anyone who may have tried to contact us through the automated membership forms on our website in July. The website and automatic form submission process was experiencing a couple of glitches over the summer but is up and running now.
We are looking forward to another great year with Parents of Tots!
Emily & Holly
We can't wait to see you at our upcoming events!
