Buddy Breakfast - Here Comes Summer!
May 3, 2013 from 7:00-8:45 a.m.

RSVPs are due this Friday, April 26, for the buddy breakfast.  Due to the fact that we are using an outside vendor to provide breakfast, it is very important that we have an accurate count.  We will not be able to take walk-ins, so please be sure to get your RSVPs in!!  Each student can invite one special adult friend such as a father, mother, grandfather, aunt, big brother or neighbor to join us for a pancake breakfast.  The cost is $7.50 per person(for both students and adult buddies). We will also be serving fruit, yogurt, and sausage.  And, of course, orange juice and coffee!

Pancakes & sun 

This is an open house format, so if you have a student attending with their buddy, feel free to come anytime between 7:00 am and 8:45 am.  If the adult attending needs to leave early, we will be offering supervised play on the playground (weather permitting) starting at 7:15 am, as well as a movie in the library starting at 7:15.  

 

If you are available to volunteer the night before or the morning of the event, please check out My Signup

 

We will be getting ready for summer, so please feel free to wear your Hawaiian shirt, sunglasses and beach hat to breakfast!  Please contact Jennifer Gruidel with questions at (303) 713-0412 or [email protected].
