## Hospitality Zita DeGraffenreid (972) 394-8177 Carol Hughes (972)378-4712 Once again we enjoyed great food and friends at the October meeting! We also learned some great parenting tips. Thank you to Sara Holland, Beth Blake-Hedges, and Shannon Croft for their help in setting up on Wednesday and to all that pitched in to clean up after the meeting. Thanks to all that brought the fantastic spread. You could come to the meetings for the food alone! We'll see you in November for the auction.
## Membership Beth Blake-Hedges 972-492-1846 I need your help! I need to get brochures out to the pediatrician's offices, ob/gyn's offices and preschools in the area. If you would be willing to drop some off at your child's school or your doctor's office, please let me know, especially if you have an appointment coming up and will be at the doctor's office anyway; I don't want anyone having to make an extra trip. I find that doctors are much more willing to place brochures in their offices if a patient asks, rather than if a stranger walks in and asks, so I really need help in this concern. I can provide you with a brochure holder too and as many brochures as you think you will need. Some schools let us put a brochure in the backpack of each preschooler, which covers a lot of potential members. If you can do that, let me know how many students attend the school and I will provide you with as many brochures as you need.
Council Delgates Ann Lee (972) 416-1180 Nancy Foreman (972) 862-1073 Thank you to Nancy Foreman and Sara Holland for helping out last month at the PTA Clothes Closet. So many families in the district benefit from this service, I know their help was greatly appreciated by the CFSISD Clothes Closet Coordinators. Now it's time to start saving those books for the Council Book Fair. They will take gently used hard back, paper back, children's books, cook books, etc. This is a great project because our PTA will receive $.05 per book we give them to sell. The dates of the sale are February 21-23, 2002 and it will be held at the Trinity Valley Shopping Center (Target Shopping Center). There will be more information coming so stay tuned and start saving those books you want to get rid of. You can bring them to the meetings and Nancy and I will take them. Thanks!
## All Around Dallas Sarah Roye 972-492-1437 All Around Dallas is going to Mommy and Me Mondays at the Dallas Arboretum on Monday, November 5th. In addition to 20,000 beautiful chrysanthemums and a 10-ft tall pumpkin topiary, the arboretum also offers many activities specifically for preschoolers. These include a trick-roping, yodeling cowboy, a petting zoo, wagon rides, and crafts and face painting. Bring your lunch (or purchase one there) and let's picnic, too! For more information about the arboretum, go to www.dallasarboretum.org. If the weather is too cold on November 5th, I'll have an alternate plan ready. Call or email me to sign up and we can decide on a time to meet.
