Potluck and Gathering Photos and Other Info

Dear WM Parents,

Thanks to all the parents involved in planning and contributing to this month's
Valentine's potluck, and thank you, Joseph, for giving us an interesting and informative presentation on understanding Alzheimer's Disease.   Here's a link to the photos to share with you:

Next month's potluck will be on 3/10, and the menu planners will be Sonia and Christina, please send the menu to me by 2/28, thanks.  Please also be reminded that these are the people responsible for bringing drinks and snacks for Watermark gatherings in February and March:

02/25--Chen Woo (Katie)

03/03--Christina Wong (Andrew)

03/17--Yue Ming Tang (Belinda)

03/24--Yahuei (Shane)
03/31--Rose Kung (Annie)

Due to a pre-scheduled medical procedure, I will not be able to coordinate for the March potluck, please let me know if you can volunteer.  The task of the potluck coordinator is mainly to get the menu from the menu planners, then send out signup emails and other announcements.  The March parents gathering will be coordinated by Joseph Chiang, who will be inviting a guest speaker for a topical presentation that will be announced later.

Happy Valentine's,
Wendar

Watermark February Potluck (FINAL UPDATE +1)


Dear Watermark Parents,

Thanks to the 17 families supporting this month's potluck, please see below for the latest update.  Thanks again to Margaret and Jean for the menu planning.  Also, the parents will reconvene after potluck to hear Joseph Chiang's presentation on "Understanding Alzheimer's (老人失智症)".  If you have non-WM friends who are interested in this topic, feel free to invite them to join us at 7:30PM in room #2.

Don't forget to bring a serving utensil for the dish you bring.  If possible, please bring your own utensils as well to help reduce trash.  We are anticipating about 50 people at the potluck, so please try to bring the at least the assigned portions of food so we won't run low on food like last potluck.  Thank you.

FYI, SJCCC now has a beginner line dance class from 4:15 - 5:15 PM on Sundays starting 1/29.  If your kids are in CM and you wish to have some fun, fellowship and exercise while waiting for them, please let me know so I can send you the necessary information for the class.  Currently we have close to 40 people signed up.  We had 2 super fun classes in the past weeks, we hope you can come join us.  (Note: this is a beginner class, most of the people have never line dance before.  Also, guys dance too, 20% of our class are males.)
