A Message from All Pro Dad-Please RSVP
Super Big Thanks to all the Kids, Dads - and Moms! - who came out to attend our first meeting of the school year! This was my very first solo meeting as Team Captain and you all made it a fantastic experience.
A special thanks to the Wilson Creek Staff for a perfect setup, our PTO Team for their support, and of course to my mini-co-captain, Sydney, and her lovely mom, Saffie, for their help with the presentation and capturing some great pictures. PICTURES LINKED HERE.
Our next Wilson Creek All Pro Dad meeting is coming very soon, on Friday September 27, 2024.
Join us for this month’s topic: SENSITIVITY. We will spend intentional time encouraging our kids with fun activities and character-strengthening conversations!
We would love to see you and your kids there! Please RSVP here.
Coffee and Donuts, and Raffle Prizes, as usual. There is no fee. Please use the cafeteria entrance. PLEASE BE ON TIME so everyone can share!
All Pro Dad always welcomes all parents, Women, or other guardians, as all families do not look the same. For more information or questions, contact me at: LJ.Mercedes@gmail.com
