Weekly Update 3-28-10

Dear Families,

We had good fun and got a lot of work done at the Equinox Garden Party on Saturday! Many thanks to the families of Eva, Kadin, Casey, Damian, Kiran and Kagan, Sierra, Max, Fiona, Haven, Greely, Phoebe and Helen, Henry, Molly, Grace, Robin and Megan, Giano, Asher, Olivia, Isabella and Annalise! Wow! We trimmed and tidied, added a terrace to the hill, cleaned up pathways and steps, filled holes in our driveway and parking lot, planted irises at the Alto St. entrance and cleared the entrance to the Sprout house where we will add river rock for those bare feet of summer. We expect to add a simple drip system to sustain our crops through the summer, as well. We couldn’t do it without you!

DATES TO LOOK OUT FOR:

TUESDAY, MARCH 30, 10:00- SAPLINGS VISIT THE MUSEUM OF INDIAN ARTS in conjunction with their social studies curriculum.

THURSDAY, APRIL 1-APRIL FOOLS DAY-Watch out for some trickery!

THURSDAY, APRIL 1, 3:15-4:30-SPRING FAIR PLANNING MEETING-Didn’t make it last week? Our committees are shaping up, and we will need lots of support for this big event. Drop by or offer your assistance by contacting Stephanie or Aaron at ap@apfineart.com. This is a great time to fulfill your obligation of service hours for the year and to spend some time in community with other Dragonfly parents. One of the  easiest ways to participate if you are on a tight schedule is to solicit donations for our silent auction from businesses and organizations you patronize. I will send a donation solicitation and thank you out in a separate email to follow, and paper copies are available in your classroom. We already have donations from the Children’s Museum, the Casa Solana Pool, Agua Fria Nursery and others! Be creative…something for everyone is a wonderful guideline. Items and services of $25 value and up. CHILDCARE PROVIDED AT NO COST DURING THIS MEETING. PLEASE RSVP TO STEPHANIE (reply to this email). Thank you for all your time and energy!

FRIDAY, APRIL 2-SCHOOL IN SESSION (PUBLIC SCHOOLS CLOSED)

TUESDAY, APRIL 6- SEEDS VISIT POLICE SUBSTATION #4- As we continue to explore the idea of neighborhood, the Seeds will walk to the police station on Alameda for a tour and visit with Officer Pratt and his police dog, Casey.
