Hello PCHEA Family!
Hope everyone is enjoying Fall, and all the special celebrations that go along with it. Our Fall Social held at the New Hope Baptist Church, and then later at the Akins' home, was a great success, despite the weather. We all enjoyed the hayride throughout the Akin's back pasture, and the hot apple cider afterwards.
We had a fun dessert contest held at the Shawnee Library. The kids had a blast. The dads had the hard job of picking the winners in each category, and we all got to help eat all the beautiful and yummy creations. Thanks kids, for doing such a great job of baking. Everything was delicious!!
So far this year we have had several field trips, and events, and all have gone well. There are no special events planned for November and December, but we are needing some help with events planned for the early part of next year. Please check out our website, homeschoolblogger.com/pchea , and look under "around the blog/2009/10 calendar of events" for details of upcoming events. There are several that are in need of coordinators or helpers. If interested in helping, please contact Jeri Akin or Nancy Schwab.
Happy Thanksgiving!!!
Will and Nancy Schwab

Share your event photos. Create an album, or post to an existing one, at our Yahoo PCHEA group. Or, send pictures to Ruth at eightsmiths [at] gmail [dot] com for posting to homeschoolblogger.com/pchea .
   Have you missed the
invitation to our private
group site? Send a note to
groups.yahoo.com/subscribe/pcheagroup .
Challenge! Get to … groups.yahoo.com/group/pcheagroup
save to your favorites, or as an icon on your toolbar.
Here you will have access to our monthly newsletter, current member directory, calendar of events, local resource & family business directories, group event photos, curriculum swap & shop, and an archive of postings from PCHEA friends.
When replying to posts, from site or e-mail, please delete the original message text, and check where your reply will be sent (to the group, or to the person). Likewise, consider editing your membership to control receipt of group activity. Administrative, & informative announcements, will be sent as special notices – this would be the best choice for basic PCHEA news (You can catch the “extras”, at site, on your own time).
If you like constant contact, choose individual e-mail. Or, the daily digest will forward each day's individual posts to you as one. Many of you work PCHEA group from your e-mail because you are not able to log in. Easy site access requires a current Yahoo account (apparently, group communiqué is not account activity). So, … start at one of these for help with this: help.yahoo.com, or groups.yahoo.com
