Flynn PTO Update 3/12/12

Hey There Flynn Families -

 Skating at Leddy Arena last Friday night was (as always) a huge success and a huge turnout. More than 87 Flynn families turned out to skate and socialize. Thank you to the PTO for making this a free event, thank you Shanta Eastman for organizing and thank you Tammy, Mary and Kate for taking a turn at signing families in. Happy to report that there were no major accidents and as far as I know, no trips to the emergency room. We had some local celebrities out with their own kids. Spotted skating was Mr. Abbey, Ms. Tinson and Mrs. Burdick! 


The March PTO meeting was last Thursday evening.  We've had great parent turnout and continue to plan and organize events to enrich the academic and social lives of your child and family.  It is never too late to get involved.  The minutes from the meeting will be available next week and the Treasurer's Report can be viewed by clicking on the following link:

Narnia is in full swing and both kids and volunteers are ramping up for a busy weekend including a set building day on Saturday (3/17) and Technical Dress rehearsal on Sunday (3/18) starting at 11:30.  We encourage parents and children grades 3+ to come help on Saturday after 8:30am.  Stay an hour or the whole day!  We will have food and drinks to keep you going and as always, fun projects and awesome folks to hang around with!  All actors/actresses need to be at school on Sunday by 11:30am with a bag lunch and a good attitude.  We will run through the whole play on stage and start to add in lights and music.  We'll add the chorus in on Monday and then it's PRODUCTION WEEK!

HELP!!!  We are looking to borrow 3 artificial Christmas trees to use on our set - Do you have one we can borrow or know someone who can help us out???  (grandparent perhaps???)  Please contact Sarah at sarah@esptrans.com - We can come get it!!!!!!

 
Mark your calendar for either Friday, March 23rd for the 7pm show or
Saturday, March 24th for the 4pm show - come see your favorite Narnia characters come to life on the Flynn School stage!  There will be entertainment, goodies to purchase and affordable flowers to buy for your favorite actor/actress/singer - cheapest family entertainment in town - we promise, no wardrobe malfunctions!
