We have our field trip on Thursday! It should be a lot of fun. Thank you for all of the parents who have volunteered to go with us. I wish it was possible to take everyone but we can't. Please make sure to pack a lunch - something that can be thrown away after we eat!
Don't forget to wear your EC Cares shirt Tuesday! We will be having our meetings and some groups will be video taped during those meetings. We would like everyone to wear their shirts.
