Thank you so much to our preschool families, church families, neighbors, and community members for attending the 2012 West End UMC Preschool Family Fellowship Festival. Our ticket sales were impressive, and we were able to provide fantastic entertainment for our families while also raising funds for our school and church.
While the Festival is the major fundraiser for West End UMC Preschool, the most important aspect goes far beyond the bottom line--it is our biggest opportunity for community-building within our school and for outreach to the greater population. This year's Festival had a number of new features, and by many accounts it was one of the most enjoyable events the school has hosted. This evening is a wonderful chance to create goodwill among our neighbors--families and local businesses, sponsors and vendors. A deep and heart-felt thank you to everyone who contributed.
To those in our community who were unable to take part this year, please consider participating next year! There are a myriad of opportunities to be involved. Whether you can volunteer to be on a Festival committee, cook for Gourmet Market, help during the Plant Sale, support the Photo Sale, or work a single volunteer shift during the day of the event--we think that you will find the effort to be very worthwhile. Having the chance to socialize and enjoy a shared family outing with your children's friends and teachers is a very special and joyous occasion!
