A day late & a dollar short, here's your Wednesday Weekly Update on Thursday. I'm slowly getting my bearings here after being out for such a long time and I re-enter at a time when we've many comings and goings here at the Center. We will be welcoming a new staff member to the Center Staff next Monday. This person will be working as an Autism Support Broker for the Autism Waiver Program. Look next week for more details
At the end of this week we will bid adieu to Wanja Kiraguri who has been the Event and Development Coordinator at the Center for the past five years. Wanja has expanded the array of fundraising events for the Center since her arrival here, including the Wine Tasting event, she built up the Golf Tournament and made connections with many sponsors. We wish her well in her future endeavors.
So while we will be looking to hire a new person for this vital role, we'll also continue to move forward and try to meet the myriad needs our families present to us
One way we are trying to meet your needs is by setting up Satellite Hours in areas remote from our Central Location. See below for the details
This week I enjoyed reconnecting with the Parents of Adults on Wednesday Night and will also enjoy seeing parents of tweens & teens this month. There will be no Parents of Girls group as the 4th Wednesday of the month is the night before thanksgiving and most will be laboring in their kitchens.
We're laboring here on the next newsletter which I hope to have out before we break for Thanksgiving. Slots are filling up for our Holiday Party for Children, please call Cid at 508-298-1610 to register your family for this annual event we need your reservation BEFORE December 9th - Thanks If you leave a message please give us your NAME any other adults in your immediate family who'll be attending, the names, gender and ages of your children. Children 12 and under will receive a gift from Santa. Also we need to know any dietary restrictions so that we can let our venue know!
Have a great week
Sue
