Family Game Night
Love to entertain? Love to play games and hang out with your kids and their friends and your friends? Love to spend time with your OLP FAMILY?
Hate the hassle of scheduling? Cleaning the bathrooms, running the vacuum, getting the pets out of the way, taking a poll of food allergies, pet allergies, favorite snacks, what everyone will or won't drink? Frustrated when you run out of chairs around the kitchen table then have to squeeze people on the piano bench or perched on the lawn chairs you dug out from the garage? What about the clean up afterwards? THE CLEAN UP AFTERWARDS?!
Just say "FUGGEDABOUTIT!" and let FSA do the work!
Mark your calendars (and the kids' calendars! And the planners! And the scheduling apps!) for FRIDAY, APRIL 20, 2012! Bring your family's favorite games, snacks and family friendly beverages and join us in the school cafeteria from 6-9 pm for FAMILY GAME NIGHT!
FSA has set the date, set up the location and will do all the cleanup....you just have to bring the FUN!

From the Office of Advancement
A Sense-sational Evening
We realize the 2nd Annual A Sense-sational Evening has come and gone, however, we are already thinking about the 3rd Annual event to be held in 2013. We want to continue to improve the event each year. We value your feedback. If you attended the event, please take a few minutes to e-mail your thoughts to the Advancement Office. Some things to consider when providing feedback: cost of tickets, time of the sale of tickets, parking, the check-in process that evening, the addition of the Chinese auction, items available at Silent Auction, Heads or Tails game, refreshments, the day of the event (Friday vs. Saturday) and any other thoughts you may have. If you did not attend the event, please let us know why? We would love to expand and include more members of the OLP family.
