North Country Homeschool Co-op 5/20/15

Please come join us at the Wesleyan Church on Rt 3 in the village of Cadyville.

Another school year is coming to a close! Hard to believe, but it's time for co-op's annual End of Year Field Day! The church building will be opened by 10:45am for set-up & access to the kitchen. The bulk of the group planned games & activities will take place between 11a-12p. The church building will be locked at 2:00pm, however families are welcome to stay later to play next door at the park. All families who have attended co-op this year, or are interested in checking co-op out for next year, are invited to attend. Weather permitting, games & outside play time will be held at the old Cadyville Elementary School building, playground & fields on Rt 3, immediately next door to the Wesleyan Church. The church building will be open & available to the group in case of poor weather, and to use the kitchen & bathroom facilities. Families should plan to bring an item to contribute to the potluck lunch or pack a picnic lunch for their family. Please bring your favorite outside toy or idea for a game. A large parachute & rope for tug-of-war will be available. Additional game/toy ideas could include: ~ balls -- basketball, soccer, kickball, etc ~ jump ropes ~ hula hoops ~ bubble solution & wands ~ sidewalk chalk ~ pillow cases or other sacks for sack races ~ lead a group game like egg balancing, 3 legged races, etc ~ simple craft projects that could be done outdoors In the event of rain, co-op will still meet. Families will have the chance to visit & play games inside, preschool toys, and simple arts & crafts activities will be set up for the students as well. If the weather is poor, please bring your favorite board game to share! Please contact Holly Warren at hollyjwarren@gmail.com if you are planning to bring an outside activity or game. RSVPs for the potluck lunch can go to Cathy Morin at woodchop2011@hotmail.com . Additionally, a schedule with the 2015-2016 co-op class meeting dates, as well as a sign-up form for teaching next year, will be available on the sign-in table at this session. We would like to have the full 2015-2016 co-op schedule made up before August 1st to help families with planning their upcoming school year & give members maximum time to prep for teaching their classes. Please bring an idea (or two!) for a class -- remember, each family teaching or arranging an outside teacher 1-2 times per year is a part of your co-op membership! Looking forward to seeing everyone on the 20th!
