Dear Friends,

Please join us next First Day, May 21st, during semi-programmed Meeting for Worship for Recognition Sunday! This is an opportunity for us to recognize some of our dedicated community volunteers, rising second graders, rising fourth graders, and graduating high school Seniors. If you know a child or young Friend who fits one of those descriptions, please email me by May 18th.

And don’t forget to register for Summer Program in June! More information is included below.

Warmly,
Karin

Mark Your Calendars!

Join us for Summer Program June 12-15, 9:30 a.m. to 12:30 p.m. This week long, cooperative program takes on a different theme each year. Participants engage in a number of activities that are centered around that theme. Some activities include short lessons, crafts, music, and outdoor games. This year, our theme is Telling Our Stories!

We hope Friends of all ages will join us as participants and/or volunteers for this wonderful week of learning, fun, and fellowship. Contact Karin Heller for registration forms.
