August Updates

What we accomplished in August...
August 16: Science Club & Geo-Bee
We had great participation from the children.
Vaishnavi shared her "Draw with the Sun" project. Manu presented her project on "Electro magnetism" & a quiz on magnets. Jai enthusiastically shared his Robo project, which he had programmed.
As an additional bonus, the children got to take home some Kodak memories with the Olympic torch at the library torch event.
Hope Avenue sincerely thanks Radhika Rao & Sai Gopalan for making this a great success!

August 30: The Heritage festival, which was planned for August 30 has now been moved to December 6th.

Planning Sessions:
August has been a great month of planning for the upcoming events.
1. The donation amounts have been split for this year's projects. We will be publishing the same during our upcoming event, Connexions.
2. The calendar team has put together their ideas and are working busily on the drafts for the 2009 Calendar.
3. There is a planning team working together for Connexions also.
Please email hopeavenue@gmail.com if you are interested to be a part of any of the planning sessions.
