Parent's Night!
Saturday, November 7th, at 7 PM at the Carriage Gate Clubhouse near King's Island.
We will be hearing from our own Megan Williams and Jenna Weber
about their experiences at Culture Camp in Cleveland this past
summer.
We will also see the slide show put together by Tom Kayes, telling
about his life, his journey back to Korea, and how he is now giving
back to the children in the orphanage where he lived for the first 3
years of his life.
Please plan to join us for these wonderful presentations and to visit with other parents.
Here are the directions to the Carriage Gate Clubhouse: take I-71
N to the Western Row Rd./Kings Island Exit and turn right
onto Western Row Road. Continue on Western Row Road until
it dead ends. Turn left onto Socialville-Foster Road.
Take the first right onto Stablegate. Turn right onto
Carriage Gate; the clubhouse is on the right hand side.
Telephone number: 398-0945.
If your last name begins with A-L, please bring an appetizer to
share. If your last name begins with M-Z, please bring a
dessert to share. Paper products, soft drinks, and ice
will be provided.
Please RSVP to PhilTinaW@juno.com so we know how many to expect. Thanks and looking forward to seeing you there! |
