A warm hello from some new faces of the Friends of BES VT. The new officers are Alison DaBica, Ali Gibson, Elizabeth Lewis, and Meg Greenleaf. We are excited to be stepping into these roles and work together with you to support our children, the faculty and staff, and the school community as a whole! We would like to thank the previous group for paving the way and sharing some great information and feedback with us, and we invite everyone to become involved in any way that works for you. Becoming a member is easy (forms are available on the website as well as at meetings and events), and it gives you a voice and a vote at meetings. We’re kicking off the year with a rush of energy. We wrapped up the Great American fundraiser and will be heading into the wreath sale in mid-October. There are several opportunities for volunteers to lend a hand coming up, so please check out our table to the Open House, come to our next meeting, and become a member so you can get email updates on opportunities between meetings.
