We expect to have something to celebrate! So let's have a party!
Mark your calendars - June 2 is our 100% school families party. We
expect by then to reach our 100% participation goal for school
families to have pledged to the renovation of the Antioch School - we
are already at 50%. Thank you to everyone who has already found a way
to pitch in!
Remember that it's NOT about how much you give, but that all of us
support the plans to renovate and renew the school. It seems we would
all want the furnace to work next winter? And the windows to let in less of a breeze?
We are getting a lot for our money - here's what will be new: Windows,
front doors, lighting, heating, paint, ceilings, flooring and even a
sink for the Kindergarten! All of this for 370K is fantastic! We have
raised 80% of what we need and are confident the rest will come. Part
of this depends on showing that 100% of school families are behind
this renovation. Perhaps you would like to contribute labor rather
than money - let us know how you can help.
Start off June 2 with the non-stop fun of a school work bee. This one
will be radical - the whole school needs to be empty! We will need
help the entire week of May 28 - June 2 to get this done. When the
work is over EVERYONE is invited to Paul & Caroline Mullin's farm for
a bonfire (beginning at 6pm) We will have hayrides, goat petting,
maybe we'll even get out the trebuchet and launch something! We will
charge $10 per family for all you can eat hot dogs, beans, and
s'mores. (And make accommodations for diet limitations) BYOB.
If you have any questions about the renovation, pledge opportunities,
or would like to help out please talk to any member of the development
committee.
Please help us make 100% happen!
