Sharing the kind and deeply felt words of thanks from our Director, Carrie Hill, to our amazing auction team (from an earlier community communication): "Wow, what an Emerald Isle it was!!! Thank you to Iliana and Katie for co-chairing a lovely, lively event!! ... Thank you to Bill for MC'ing and keeping the music lively. Thank you to Sanela and her crew for all the green details. Thank you to Alex for creating the menu and staffing the kitchen. Thank you to all the people and families who worked along with Iliana, Katie, Alex and Sanela to put on such a wonderful event. Thank you to all the "worker bees" who created the invitations, collected the solicitations, made and donated items, set up the event, provided food, took down the event, and worked the check-out. It was nice to be able to visit, eat and play the bidding game along with all of you. Hopefully you were able to purchase something you truly wanted; I sure did. I am speaking not only for myself, but for the staff as well when I say, we are very grateful to have such wonderful parents/families at Broadway. It is a joy every day to come to work knowing we get to delight in your children and have your support; we thank you for sharing your children with us. With heartfelt gratitude - Carrie" And a rousing shout-out to our Alumni Families, too, who turned out in full force! Thank you for your continued support and participation in our community--and what a joy to hear how your children are doing--keep in touch.
