## Hospitality Zita DeGraffenreid (972) 394-8177 Carol Hughes (972)378-4712 We enjoyed seeing everyone at the September meeting. The food was great - thank you board members! Also, thank you to Sara Holland, Shannon Croft, and Alina Gaubert for helping with the setup on Wednesday afternoon. It goes very quickly when we have a few extra hands to help. Please join us at the October meeting for more good food and prizes. Don't forget to sign the early bird sheet when you come in. If you have a chance, drop by and help us setup on the Wednesday afternoon before the meeting at 3:30. Thanks for you help and we'll see you in October!

Council Delgates Ann Lee (972) 416-1180 Nancy Foreman (972) 862-1073 Nancy and I already had our first council meeting and are excited about what the school district is planning for the year. The Clothes Closet is a VERY important part of the C-FBISD and we can help out. The Clothes Closet is available to children and their families in our school district that are in need of items. In the event of a fire, natural disaster, etc. We help out by continuously collecting clothes to be donated. You can bring them to the General Meetings or call Nancy or myself to get them. The other way we help them is by volunteering a few hours on a designated day to help sort and fold donated clothes, help clean up a little and help people shop if necessary. Our scheduled day is Wednesday, October 17. We will have sign-up sheets in the notebooks for volunteers. I also mentioned in the first newsletter the Taste Test. The council has decided not to do that this year but instead to a book drive. They are patterning this after the Richardson ISD which has done this for 18 years and now successfully raises around $40,000 for their scholarship programs. Our council is still working out the fine details and has NO intention of raising $40,000 this year but would like everyone's help in getting this started and continuing this annually. They will take all used books in sellable condition, no magazines or newspapers, coloring books, pamphlets, National Geographic or college text books. The good news is that as a PTA we will also benefit from this. They will pay each PTA $.05 per book donated, they will also pay our PTA if we have volunteers to work the book sale. They collect the books and sell them at a book sale for no more that $1.00 per hard back and less for paper backs and kids books. Start setting those books that you don't want anymore aside. We will start collecting those soon so stay tuned.
