A few items:
* First, a policy thing: kids need to be accompanied by their
parents. In special circumstances a parent may fill out a waiver giving
another HIS member permission to bring their child(ren). Thank you for understanding.
* Second, and this is a fun one: a reminder we've got a
Facebook group. It's a kid-free, judgment-free space for encouraging
each other & asking questions, getting advice, sharing ideas, or
even scheduling get-togethers between our monthly meetings. If you're
not already a member, I encourage you to join! We'd love to have you.
Ask another member (including me) to add you if you like, or the link is
here: https://www.facebook. com/groups/144600135585835/.
* Our meeting is 9:45am - 2pm
at Wakemans Grove. Potluck lunch as usual. The theme is
respect/compassion/empathy. A prize to the first family to arrive and
solve the puzzle!
* Barby Hobcroft from Classical Conversations will be making a presentation at 12:45pm in the lunchroom.
*
It's going to be muddy out there, so please make sure the kids are
dressed for that (whatever that means to you, haha!). For Indoor/Outdoor
games, you'll be inside--bring fun games, or Mrs. Woods will make you
play hopscotch for an hour.
* Needs:
1) Staci Woods has graciously
agreed to take this week's jr high class (can anyone help her?)--but we
still need teachers to take the class for March & April. Please
email me asap if you're willing.
2) Playground supervisors. Morning & lunchtime, for the wee tots AND big kids.
3) Nursery help if the Browns are still sick and unable to attend.
4) Lynn Rhodes needs pinking shears for the handicrafts club. So if you have a pair you can bring, she will be the only one using them and will return them at the March meeting.
* Signups: You'll have the opportunity to sign up for the April 3rd
X-Fair (I'm SO excited about this--and I expect a big turnout this
year. Did I mention there will be prizes??). We'll also have a signup
for our soup/sandwich themed lunch in March.
* Service: Lisa Copp-Croft & Holly Neff have set up an opportunity to serve the veterans again by passing out Easter cards, April 15 @ 6:30pm. More details at Thursday's meeting.
I think those are the biggies. Please keep lifting each other up in prayer.
Looking forward to seeing everyone shortly!
