HELLO SOUTH LOOP!!!
Do you or your children take classes at Chicago Women's Park and Gardens? Do you love the teachers who teach your classes?
NOW is the chance to show them just how much you appreciate them. With this upcoming week being Teacher Appreciation Week (May 1-May 5), we think it fitting to do something fun and special for the awesome teachers at the park.
Here's what YOU can do:
1. Pop into the park and pick up a YELLOW sheet of paper (or simply use a piece from home). They will be available at the front desk or in the office (ask for Talonna).
2. Trace your child's (or children's) or your hand and cut it out. In the fingers, write a nice note to the teachers at Women's Park. We invite you to make as many as possible.
3. Return your traced, and cut our hands to the park Friday at NOON. There will be a drop-box labeled "SLPC" at the front desk or you can give them to Talonna (Park Director) in the park office.
4. Come back to see what we have planned to show these AWESOME teachers what we have done for them.
They so deserve it!!!
Thank you, in advance, for your participation. We appreciate it.
