Edgemont PTA
After School Clubs – Winter 2015

Dear Families,

Welcome to the winter session of the PTA’s After School Clubs! As the weather grows colder, we’re looking forward
to activities that will keep our kids warm, cozy and engaged indoors. We have a roster that includes some fantastic new
clubs that we think our clubbers will love, like Woodworking at both schools, Let’s Dance, 3D Minecraft Animation,
and Storybook Workshop at Greenville, and Racing Academy Jr., Musical Theater, Computer Programming, and
Inventions-n-Concoctions at Seely Place. Of course, we’re bringing back several familiar favorites as well, so we hope
every student will find a place in our programming! Don’t forget – we’re now operating on a first come, first served
basis. To be sure you’ll secure a spot for your child in our clubs, we recommend registering as soon as our Eventbrite
site opens on Monday, November 24th at 6pm.

We hope you all found our new Eventbrite registration system and the additions of our Teacher’s Aides to our team
easier and more convenient this fall. We are continually improving and value all comments or suggestions you may
wish so share. Please reach out to us at [email protected] with any feedback.

Happy Clubbing,

The After School Clubs Team

*As a reminder, the After School Clubs program is organized and administered by the Edgemont Elementary PTA and is not affiliated with the
