Family Reading Night...rescheduled

As you know, we had to postpone Family Reading Night this week. Our guest author had some medical emergencies and had to cancel her trip to Michigan.

Well, we've rescheduled the events to Monday, April 20, from 6-8 p.m. So be sure to come to Madison Elementary for a fun family night! Activities include (but are not limited to!) Book Bingo, Mad Libs, Book Trivia, a Book Walk, bookmark making stations, reading under the stars (complete with a campsite), dramatic play, book swap, and tons of prizes and give-aways! After all that you'll get to be part of a presentation by our children's author Sandra Philipson and her dogs, Max, Tak & Trini.

So don't miss out on a great night! You and your kids will love it!

Mom/Son Fun Night

THANK YOU to everyone who made this year's Mom/Son Fun Night a great success. A special thank you to our chairperson Karri Tarsha, who worked incredibly hard on this event for us, getting tons of great prize donations, designing a really cool t-shirt, and putting in tons of hours to make this all come together!

We had approximately 80 boys and their chaperones attend Saturday night's event. There were many different prize winners, with Jalen Jones winning the grand prize of 4 passes and a gift card to Splash Universe in Dundee. We also had many donated prizes for the moms this year too!

Thank you to Mary Anschuetz for taking care of all games and setting up the gym for us! And we couldn't have done it without the dad voulnteers, so moms could actually go play with their boys.

Welcome...

I'm attempting to begin this blog as a way to keep us all linked with upcoming events, volunteer opportunities, photos, etc... of PATT activities. If you would like to be taken off the list to receive updates for PATT, please feel free to email me and I will remove your email address.

We have many different activities coming up, and as you know, these activities require the work of many different volunteers, in many different capacities. I'll list some of the events as they come up and you may log in to post what you'd like to help out with. This will keep others posted as well, as to what is still open.

Again, that you for all you do to help us make a positive impact on the students of the Madison community!
