Today's Program: Parents As Teachers by A. Daufeldt & S. Williams

 

In Case You Missed It

Monday's presentation was given by members of Leadership Muscatine: Brian McKillip, Mary Kirchaer, Aaron Steffons, Sherry Reno, Candy Terril, Trista Sotelo, Jennifer Peterson, and Lynn Roddy.  This group named their project "Planting the Seeds of Learning in Muscatine".  Their project had two main focuses the Flickinger Learning Center and Ag Center.  The group helped do some light remodeling of the current Flickinger Center by updating electrical, painting, organization, and much more.  The Flickinger Learning Center provides children from Jefferson Elementary school afterschool care and help with their homework.  The other portion of their project was focused on supporting the Ag Learning Center.  The group will be conducting a trivia night on April 9th at the Rendezvous beginning at 6 p.m. to raise funds for FFA students.  The Ag Learning Center and FFA have a special place in the group's hearts and they are hoping to make this an annual event that FFA students will continue.  Thank you for all that you are doing in Muscatine!
