Hola Friends,
Happy belated Cinco De Mayo.

We had a good representation in class this week, but just in case you missed it, here's the scoop...

IMPORTANT INFO ABOUT CLASS:
School's out for summer! That's right, due to conflicting schedules, there will be no more FIF this month.
Look for announcements about next season's classes, to begin again after Labor Day.

BTW> We deliberated yesterday about the best format for next year's "Sunday" school. It may be an evening thing on a weeknight, it may not be at the church... details are still very up in the air. However, we have all summer to make a plan, so stay tuned.

INFO ABOUT FRANCISCO:
We have decided to continue supporting our adopted buddy through the end of the year. But we could use your help. The skinny: we need to collect $100 from July-December 31 (Between all you, that's only like $10 each). I might hit you up with a collection bucket at the summer activities - but remember it is for an excellent cause, and we just need to put in a few bucks each to keep it going. In the meantime, I'll see if I can solicit any recent details on our friend, or a smiling picture :)

SUMMER ACTIVITIES:
Girl's Night Out/Guys Night Out - Mark your calendars for Friday, June 8th.
I am trying to book a spa party for the girls. Sounds like the guys might be interested in a Tiger's game (or else the old bbq and beer standby). Please save the date and look for more details shortly.

Special Summer Party - there will be a July bash, likely at Paul's, to celebrate babies, college and good friendships. Date coming shortly.

Service Opps??? We've had a little trouble getting info. about the greening of detroit or urban farming. We will continue to pursue. In the meantime, if you have an idea for a service opp, please share it.

Have a beautiful week everyone!
Jessica
