Calling All Bookworms!!!

This Wednesday, May 16th, we will be meeting at the Library for our activity from 6:50 to 7:50.  We are very excited for this opportunity.  We will be taking a tour of the library and learning about the summer reading program.  OK, so I know that may not sound like tons of fun... but trust me it will be!  If you remember, please have your daughter bring her favorite book.  This will help give the girls some ideas about what books they may want to read this summer.  If your daughter doesn't already have a library card, you can sign her up for one if you want.  A parent must be present to sign up for a library card.  The parent needs to bring one of the following:  A current library card (for our library of course), a photo ID with local address, or a photo ID and a bill or other proof of local address.  

Important Things to Remember:

Meeting at Library

Meeting from 6:50 to 7:50

Bring daughter's favorite book

Bring ID if you will be signing up your daughter for a library card.

If anyone has any problems with the time or just can't figure out your taxi driving route that evening... please give me a call and we will work it out!

*** Calendar Change ***

This week will not be our Recognition Night.  Instead we will be having our "Art Day" activity.  The Recognition Night will be rescheduled and more information is to come.  


Thank you for your patience and understanding.

Ancestor Activity

Feb. 15th is our next activity.  We will be learning about ancestors.  We've asked each girl to pick a country that her ancestors were from.  She then needs to do a little research and find some fun, interesting or entertaining facts about that country.    Please help her print a flag (this can be printed in color or they can print a "coloring page" version and color themselves) and write her facts on the back.  Last but not least, please help your daughter bring a food or beverage item from that country.  Let's say your country is Germany...  you could make some great homemade pretzels or if you just don't have time you can purchase the same style pretzels from the store.  We don't want to burden any family, the object is to allow the girls to see that learning about our ancestors can be both educational and fun!


***Please remember, no food items with nuts.  Thank You***


In short, the girls need to bring the following
Flag with facts written on back
Food or Beverage item from that country

January 18th 2012 Activity

We will be making "Cleaning Jars" tomorrow night.  Please bring a clean Mason Jar.  If you have an extra jar, we would be grateful if you could bring it as well (just in case someone forgets or can't bring one).  


Thanks  :)

Thanksgiving Activity Tomorrow!!!

Hello Everyone,

Just wanted to send a reminder out about tomorrow's Achievement Day Girls activity on Tuesday @ 7:00 pm.  We will be doing an activity on Thanksgiving and Holiday Traditions. So if there are any family traditions you do in your family we would love to hear about it from the girls. 

Also, feel free to bring some treats since this is our Thanksgiving activity. Bringing treats is optional though so no stressing. :)  Looking forward to this activity. It's going to be lots of fun!

  

Thanks,

Ashley 

Our Missionary Week is fast approaching!!!

Our yearly Missionary Week is fast approaching!  For those who will be new to Missionary Week, it is a fun and very spiritual week.  Each girl will have the opportunity to grow a as an individual, a friend and a daughter of God.  Parents, this week asks your daughters to make sacrifices as they strive to live a missionary type life style.  We ask you to please support and encourage your girls during this wonderful experience. 


Preparations are well underway and we are getting very excited!!!


A few things to note;  due to the nature of this activity we meet two weeks in a row.  Our first meeting willl be Sept. 27th and our conclusion will be on Oct. 4th.  The first meeting is for the girls and dress is casual.  Our second meeting, Oct. 4th, is for the girls and their parents.  We ask to please wear Sunday dress as we will be meeting in the chapel.  Please also bring a snack or treat to share.  


Thanks in advance for your help and support.
