Living in small town, we have a fairly small support group.  It consists of about 25 families with about 20 being regularily active.  These last few years we've embarked on holding a short Co-Op in the spring and the fall.  It runs once a week for six weeks.  This goal is worthy but still so much work.  We are getting ready to start this week and the topic is DRAMA/THEATER.  I may have bitten off more than I can chew.  We are just trying to keep it simple and fun - but simplicity is something I stuggle with.  Moms seem so tapped out.  We all have to choose what is most important - and choosing to do nothing outside of our normal subjects has to be ok.  There are seasons for everything.  What worked one year doesn't necessarily mean it will be good for the next.  This is one of the hardest parts about being in any position of leadership.  "Reading the crowd" and being ahead of the curve instead of crashing and burning mid turn. 

I've enjoyed reading about other moms who use the Keepers program for a co-op or get togethers.  I am talking with another mom about putting a group together.  I'm super excited about this. I've really only seen it used for girls groups.  Does anyone have experience or a reference for using it in a boys group?

Have a blessed day - I'll post how our DRAMA went.
