It's officially started! This morning the Atom and Pee Wee paddling groups hit the water - in more ways than one. Does it make me a bad mom when I tell my 8 year-old who is in his first year as an Atom to get back in the water for his swimming test because that's what the coach asked? Ah, the parent guilt. I'll make sure he wears his wet suit for Monday and I'll pack hot chocolate.
In other news, a sewing party is taking place this morning in Heritage Hall. A group of about four ladies are in the process of making more buns for the club. A huge thank you!
The Canteen opens on Monday and while I have yet to figure out how to work the mega/computer cash registrar - it will open. It just might be done the old fashion way - a float, calculator and price list, but it will open from 10am-2pm and if there is need to have it open longer we will look into that.
I'm happy to report our healthy choice menu plan with Subway, Little Caesar's Pizza and Booster Juice is ready to roll. I'm hoping to attach the forms to this blog but if that fails I will be walking around introducing myself on Monday and have a clip board of forms if you're interested. Personally, I'm signing up because I'm seriously sick of making 4 sandwiches all year so even once a week of not having to make one makes my morning less hectic.
Join us on Monday around 2pm for Parent Afternoon Tea. It's free and a nice way to meet other Maskwa parents.
Once you enter Heritage Hall you will notice we could do with a few more things for the children/youth.
Again here is my wish list:
TV
DVD/VCR - so the kids can play a movie on rainy days
Movies for the kids to watch (pg please)
More board games
more puzzles for the younger ones
crafts for the younger ones
Foose ball table
Ping-pong table
More mugs for Parent Tea
Here is my letter for parents for our healthy lunch options.
Dear Parents:
Maskwa Aquatic Club is pleased to announce this summer we have partnered with Little Caesar’s, Subway and Booster Juice to offer healthy alternative choices for you and your child and to make your life a bit easier for days you might be tired of packing lunches.
All of our orders will be pre-paid and must be into me by 3pm each Friday. Payments can be made by cash, or cheque payable to Maskwa Aquatic Club.
Please fill out the below forms indicating your lunch program orders. The program commences the week of July 12 and the last week is the week of August 23. Booster Juice smoothie day will be on Tuesdays, Subway day is Wednesday, Thursday will be Pizza Day, and of course the Maskwa BBQ takes place every Friday.
Please note that if your child does not attend Maskwa for a day they have ordered lunch, no refunds can be given.
If you are ordering lunches for more than one child in your family, please complete separate order forms for each child.
If paying by cheque, please make out separate cheques for each of the lunch programs (Little Caesar’s, Subway and Booster Juice) you are participating in. However, if there are multiple children, it is not necessary to make out more than one cheque per lunch program.
