Tuesday, January 31, 2012 MOM Talk on the Road @ Legacy Church Learning Center. 4501 Legacy Drive, Plano 75024. 10-11:15am.
TOPIC: LEMONADE PARENTING. How T.A.R.T. is your family?
What if there was a simple FORMULA for leading your family? Well… there is. And it can be found in the simplicity of a Lemonade Stand.
•Hear how Sarah Morris, Founder of This Side UP! Family Center (www.thissideupfamily.org), a new non-profit in Plano, TX is using the Lemonade Stand T.A.R.T. formula (TEAMWORK, ATTITUDE, RESPONSIBILITY & THINKING BIG!) both within her own family AND to grow a Center that is doing amazing things to move families from surviving to THRIVING in our community!
Sarah will introduce Stand UP! For a A Cause, the 2012 Community Serve Focus project of This Side UP! Family Center (and Girl Scout Gold Award Project of Ricky Rajani).
She’ll invite your family into this easy, exciting way to make a huge impact in Plano and surrounding areas!
*There WILL be lemonade and lemon treats, of course! :))
Most importantly, YOU will leave with practical ideas and plans for becoming a T.A.R.T. Lemonade Leader in your family, too!!
Make 2012 a powerful year of connection for your family!
(*Cost is a $5 suggested donation towards This Side UP!’s mission of moving families from surviving to THRIVING!)
Thursday, February 9 MOM Talk. Lorraine Brock of Get Organized will share Savvy Ways to Save,
11:30am-1pm. $5/person w/o lunch OR $11/person with lunch. FREE Childcare available. Savvy Ways to Save is about showing you little known secrets of ways to save money on products and services you use everyday. If it’s shopping on the internet or buying in a local store, there are savings to be had. Do free directory assistance calling, free samples, free books and furniture sound great? What about knowing when the best time is to buy clothing, gifts and other items? Some like coupons and some don’t. While clipping coupons can save you money, it also takes more time and often “time” is what you need to “Get Organized!”. But… did you know you can now use coupons without having to clip them unless you are going to actually use them? It’s true. It’s a new way of using coupons that will pay off big. If you need extra cash for spending, or need to cut cost in order to stay home with your kids, it’s all about Savvy Ways to Save.
Sat. 2/25 Saturday Night THRIVE. 6-8pm.
Join us for a FAMILY ZUMBA PARTY! This month’s theme is Thriving Families Celebrate and Date, so… make it a family date to join us for an evening led by Marisol of Zumba with a Purpose. We’ll send you home with a tool to elevate that value in your home, too. $10/family suggested donation. Comfy clothes suggested. Prizes and FUN to be had by all!

Tonight’s event: FREE MOVIE NIGHT: Race to Nowhere, PG-13
Presented by Academic Life Coaching of North Texas
Pre-Register HERE for reserved seating (includes FREE popcorn) and to be eligible for GREAT prizes!
Race to Nowhere is a film that focuses on the current achievement culture found in American schools. A concerned mother turned filmmaker aims her camera at the high-stakes, high-pressure culture that has invaded our schools and our children’s lives. The film points to the silent epidemic in our schools: cheating has become commonplace; students are disengaged; stress-related illness and depression are rampant; and many young people arrive at college and the workplace unprepared and uninspired. Race to Nowhere is a call to action for families, educators, and policy makers to challenge current assumptions on how to best prepare the youth of America to become healthy, bright, contributing and leading citizens.
Following the film, Academic Life Coaching will offer a short panel discussion with local education and family experts. They will present TERRIFIC ideas and practical tips on how to combat the achievement culture. You will benefit from addressing this tough topic! As you dive into this school year, this Movie Night will move your family from surviving to THRIVING and lead you towards making it a true SUCCESS!
(Bring your own dinner or purchase snacks/drinks from our $1 Café. Childcare available by reservation for kids ages 0-12 years.)
