Playgroup

We will plan on meeting on Fridays at 11:30. We will go to the same park for the entire month. Clayton has some awesome parks I am concerned with getting pack in time to pick up siblings so if time is an issue we may change these parks to a more centrally located park.

I will try to get evites out the week before potlucks so we don’t have 12 people bring crackers.

If you have any other questions or suggestions please feel free to contact me, I love input and want this to be fun for you and your child too.
