There was a tragic fire in Golden Valley last weekend. Robin and Sam Gale lost their home and two pets. This family has a Meadowbrook PTO connection, as Robin has been a frequent donor to our silent auction (she is owner at the Mainstream Boutique in Golden Valley). Here are two ways to help the family, if you would like to:

Donate HERE to their Go Fund Me Page.
Click HERE to view Amazon wish list for the family.

The Committee for Parents Night Out Auction Party on April 5th, is looking for help in with Meadowbrook’s largest fundraiser held at
Brookview Community Center.

Do you have these skills
and would volunteer?
We are seeking help with donation solicitation, day of event help, party planning, great gatherings and
overall organization.

If you are looking for a great way to connect with other Meadowbrook parents, please do not hesitate to help out! We are hoping to increase volunteers this year and have fun in the process.

If interested please email Erin Plasch at meadowbrooksa@gmail.com.
