Extended Hours for Union Mill Blood Drive on April 23
The American Red Cross and the Union Mill PTA will be holding
our next blood drive on Monday, April 23, in the Union Mill
Elementary cafeteria from 2:30 to 8:00 pm, with the hope that
the extra hour will allow time for more parents to donate after work or to take turns donating while
the other spouse is at home reading the bedtime stories. Please contact Sheri Brown at
sheri.brown@fcps.edu or 703‑322‑8504 for help in scheduling your donation appointment or to
volunteer an hour or two to sign in donors and pass out cookie

On Tuesday night, April 24, 2012, we will be celebrating our diverse community, promoting literacy
with good books, and sharing dessert at our PTA's ice cream social. We moved the day from the
Thursday of book fair week to avoid "Take Your Kid to Work Day" so that more families can join us.
The book fair will be open this night. Our cafeteria will be an ice cream parlor with delicious ice
cream and toppings provided by our PTA. In the gym, the Multicultural Celebration will celebrate the
2012 Olympics to be held in London with our own version of events. We would like to have student
performers, families displaying their cultures, students performing dances and reading in native
languages, and much more. The children who attend will receive a passport booklet to get stamped
as they "visit" each "country" and earn stars toward Olympic medals. Be on the lookout for forms in
Friday envelopes soon to sign your family up to be part of the celebration. Please be sure to
return your slip on time and then you will receive a confirmation from the committee. If you have
any questions, please contact Ms. Bardenhagen, the PTA Multicultural Committee
