SUMMER VBS LETTER 2013

Dear Parents,

SUMMER VBS 2013!!! How is everyone doing today! We are very close to our Summer VBS 2013 kickoff and I just wanted to send you all a welcome e-mail saying Hello! Hello! We look forward to meeting you and having your children here with us for 6 weeks!  Here is a brief initial overview of what to expect for our Summer VBS 2013. More information on its way!

As our Summer VBS gets started our blog is in the process of being updated with the latest information (daily schedule, class blogs, pictures, lunch menus, lunch volunteer sign up availability). So keep on checking!!!

Call for Volunteers!

We need volunteers in 2 areas:

1) Lunch: To help serve daily lunches to students.  (10A-1PM)  Once our daily menu is available it will be up on our blog palisummervbs.blogspot.com. Sign-up Sheet is available  as you will see on July First. You can sign up by hand,  email our office (palisummerschool@gmail.com) to sign-up for a time slot, and when the menu is up on our blog, you can sign up.

2) Drivers with minivans or cars that can accommodate car seats.  Our Nursery, Pre-K and Kinder classes will be going on a few  outings.  These outings are less than 3 miles away but we need enough cars to transport our 40 little ones from 3-5 years.  When the dates are finalized we will be sending out another notice.  So, please let us know if and when you will be available to help us keep our little ones safe.
