Tuesday, February 10th:  An “Action Team” Meeting on “Stop the Testing!” from 7:00 to 8:30 PM

We have formed a “Stop the Testing! Action Team in response to the energy that was created at our forum last Wednesday. This group will meet to work on the “next steps” needed to address the issue of mass standardized testing in our public schools.

This team is open to the public. You do NOT have to have been at last week’s forum to join this team. We would love to have a large group to tackle this important issue.

For more information, please contact Waring Fincke at wrfincke@charter.net or 262-334-1030.

 

Wednesday, February 11th:  Blankets for the Linus Project from 6:30 to 8:00 PM

We’re back making blankets! Please join us in making blankets for “The Linus Project,” an organization that provides blankets for children experiencing trauma or grief in their lives. These blankets will be donated to the Washington County branch of “The Linus Project” to be distributed right here in our county.

All the welcome. There will be projects for people who can knit, sew, crochet, plus projects for those without these skills. Please join us for this important, community-building evening.
