May 27, 2006 - Spring Banquet
We had our PACHEK Spring Banquet on Thursday evening. It was more
wonderful than I could've imagined. We entered to find the room full of
balloons, and the tables... oh! The tables! Each table was covered with
paper, on which we found questions, quotes, and discussion starters.
There were books for answering various questions, crayons, rulers,
pencils & erasers, Skittles, and M&Ms. The kids had lots of fun
with all that, and so did the grown ups!
Families displayed some
of their children's schoolwork from the past year. We saw a huge bug
collection, a castle model, a Civil War display, marshmallow
sculptures, paintings, and several other neat projects. There was a
potluck dinner with more than enough food to go around... and around.
As
we finished eating, some of the children gave musical or other
presentations. We certainly have talented young people in our
homeschool group! This was followed by each family leader introducing
his (or her) family and recognizing special achievements.
The
last presentation was very special to me. Two of the other PACHEK
leaders presented me with a thank-you gift -- a poster of Kentucky
memorabilia to remember them by. I plan to have it signed before I move!
The evening was a beautiful celebration of homeschooling. I hope it becomes a PACHEK tradition!
