"El Brilla Para Los Animalitos" THIS Friday, 6/16, 6:30-8:30pm, Puesta del Sol Gym
Hey dads of 4th and 5th grade girls currently at Puesta del Sol! Take advantage of this opportunity to have your daughter all to yourself for an evening while you still can! Take her to Puesta del Sol's 4th annual father-daughter dance. "El Sol Brilla Para Los Animalitos" (The Sun Shines for the Little Animals) is an event to benefit the stray and unwanted animals of Seattle Humane Society. All you have to do is bring a donation of cat or dog food and/or your old cell phones. This is a wonderful way to create a special memory for you and your daughter and to help support local animals in need.
**Volunteers are welcome to help out before, during, or after the dance. Please contact Sr. Mattson if interested:
mattsonk@bsd405.org
