Events and Happenings: August and September
-August 16, 2011-Comments (0)
Some tidbits we've gathered that we thought you might be interested in:
- From now until September 30, Sprite is giving community members the chance to help their local school win a $25,000 grant to fund refurbishing playground equipment and athletic fields. The Sprite Spark Parks program has 25 grants to give away. The winners will be selected by community members donating MyCokeRewards points off specially marked Sprite products. A list of eligible schools can be found at mycokerewards.com/schools.
- The creators of Fireproof and Facing the Giants release another family-friendly film September 30: Courageous. Courageous is the story of four law enforcement officers who struggle with the balance of their work with fatherhood and family. Can't we all relate to that? What Fireproof did for marriages, Courageous promises to do for father-children relationships.
- As the 10-year anniversary of the September 11th attacks approaches, you may be looking for an event to attend, perhaps to help your children understand the significance of that time. This site has a list of submitted Healing and Remembrance Events; if you are planning something in your city, you can submit it as well.
What's happening in your neck of the woods in the next few weeks?
