Greetings!
Happy New Year!
I can't begin to tell you how excited I am to start this new year with you. I promised to keep you informed about our matching grant for $10,000.00. We're getting there!! Special thanks to:
Allen Schubert and The Schubert Foundation, The Mahan Foundation, Becky and Chris Bowling, Crestwood Baptist Church and Mr. Rymarz and Donna Hinnant
Thanks to their generous donations, we have raised $4,030.00!
It's not too late to reach our goal...your year-end donations will continue to be matched in January. You may donate on-line, or mail a check to our headquarters at 13029 Middletown Industrial Blvd, Ste. 100, Louisville KY 40223.
TURN THOSE RADIOS UP...
Beginning on Monday, January 10th, Operation: PARENT will be running five 30-second spots each day on WAY FM 93.9 announcing our upcoming fundraiser on January 27th. So turn those radios up and don't forget to order your tickets to hear National Speaker Sarah Panzau tell her most amazing story that could save your teens life!
Our New Year's resolution at Operation: PARENT is to start making the world a better place for our kids...we think this speaker event is the perfect way to get started.

Did you know Sarah Panzau was an
All American volleyball player?
Sarah knew what it was like to be on top of her game - and on top of the world. But not long after, she nearly lost it all as she began heading down a destructive path. She recounts first-hand how peer pressure and drunk driving changed her life. Sarah has spoken to thousands of middle school, high school and college kids across the country and leaves young people spellbound. Come see how she captivates her audience and encourages them to consider the recoil of making bad decisions.
Her story will amaze you...and your teen...guaranteed.
Let's come together as a community of families and make this a sell-out event. Coaches...bring your team!

Topic: The Choking Game
January's Coffee Break topic will be The Choking Game. Although this is called a "game" the consequences for the players can be serious and sometimes fatal.
We will view video clips (compliments of YouTube) and learn what it is, warning signs and prevention to this dangerous game practiced by children as young as kindergarteners.
These events are free but please register due to seating limitations.
