A.I.M Pizza Party

Thursday Jan 15th the Self-Advocacy group AIM is having a pizza party to celebrate Self-Advocacy in the new year. We are using the money we raised selling suckers and popcorn at the Craft fair. Clients wishing to participate in the pizza party must sign up on the list posted in EDS by monday afternoon. We will be ordering pizza from Rosatis and eating around 12. Clients should bring their own drinks.

January 9th

Due to the heavy snowfall and the black ice, I made the judgement calls for Britt not to drive the clients out to MCC today. We will have classes here at Pioneer Center.

The clients are worried about lunch, but have no fear. We'll take care of that here on our end.

If you have any questions, don't hesitate to call.

Thanks, Rachel
