Watermark Parents: Two upcoming fun/social family activities - Tony

Dear Watermark Parents,
As discussed last night, there are two upcoming social activities that are worth consider participating as a group. For both activities, please respond to Amy and let her know how many are kids/adults coming from your family by Wednesday 1/16.

1. Peking Acrobats at Flint Center Cupertino at 3pm on Saturday 1/26

• key idea is promote family activity with Chinese heritage, we saw similar performance in Beijing last year, and it was great. This is an excellent experience for our kids to see performance from top acrobats from China, and could be a fun outing with other families.
  
• for the $45 tickets, Kai Main negotiated 20% off for group purchase=$36 per person. Please reserve with Amy by Wed 1/16 so she can get tickets from Kai Min. (please provide name, number of people, and phone numbers)
  
• the entire group can try to get seats together, have dinner after the show, and come to Watermark together

2. San Jose Diocese Basketball Game between Priest and Seminarians at 7pm on Friday 2/1 at Archbishop Mitty High School (5000 Mitty Way
San Jose)

• this is a fund raising activity for the Seminarians ($5 for students, $10 for adults), sponsored by the Vocation group, our family went last year (along with 1200 others from the Diocese!), and it was a lot of fun for everyone, whether you are into sports or not.
  
• it's possible that we can try to sit together during the game, kids will probably be seating together with other Watermark friends anyway
  

Also, a friendly reminder from Hai Hsia that there is a Tijuana meeting after Mass on 1/27 in the Parish Hall.

God bless,
+Tony (sending on behalf of our room parent, Amy :) )

PS, Maria and Vincent, copying you guys in case there are interests from Cornerstone as well.
