Sept. 23



Just another reminder...



Our Apple Festival will be on Monday, Sept. 26 from 8:45-10:15. We have 5 rotating stations and we will assign parents as they arrive. Between the two classes we have 38 kids that will visit each station. We could use a few more "snacks". Hostess apple pies are a big hit, individual applesauce cups are easy to manage, bags of dried apple chips, spoons, apple juice or cider, apple pie, cobbler or donuts, even ice cream for a la mode! Plenty of people have signed up for caramel dip and we have plenty of plates. Don't forget your 2 assigned washed, bagged and labeled apples. Send me an email so I can be prepared.



Happy Fall...
