Please take some time to sign up for our 5k run/walk on October 6th!!

We're also looking for supplies and sponsors, if you might have leads on either.

We need VOLUNTEERS for the International Festival on Sept 9, 
the Clean Up The Playground Day on Sept 15th, 
and the 5k.

In a combination of popularity, and publicity, our group has been featured on the blog  http://ourdreamplayground.org/.  Click on the link to check out the site and see how donations are going (or donate yourself)  (or link to your facebook page so others can donate)

Save the date(s)!  Our big three fall events are coming, and we need your help!  

Sunday September 9th - Peabody International Festival!  We still need a few volunteers to take a 1-2 hr shift at the table anytime from 10-5

Saturday September 15th
Clean up the playground day!  We will have Endicott students with us as well, the plan is to clean the playground, pull weeds, and paint some fun stuff on the playground. Feel free to bring the kids - we'll have some activities planned for them.  9am-12pm  We need some food/drink donations as well as supplies! If you or someone you know would be willing to donate paint (for the asphalt not the building!), trash bags, gloves etc please let us know! We need as many volunteers as possible as well.

Saturday October 6th (Columbus Day weekend) 5k Race/Walk to the Playground!   We are partnering with Pumped for Life to hold our first (hopefully!) annual 5k!  We will have a shorter distance for kids as well as some post-race activities. Details for registration will be coming soon.  We will definitely need a lot of volunteers from about 7am - 2pm.  

• Thanks to those who came to Chuck E Cheese -  'twas a small turnout because of the weather, but every little bit counts!  
• Also remember Wendy's dine out nights both Fri August 24th and Monday August 27th at the Wendy's on Rt.1.
  

Chuck E Cheese night - 3-8pm THIS Friday (August 10th) -

A portion of all of the token and food sales goes to Welch, and we will have a few scooters and gift cards to raffle off! Please find Alisha or Devin (we'll be near the entrance) and we will give you a sticker for 10 free tokens!  Be sure to buy the tokens at the register - tokens purchased through the machine do not count towards our totals!
