- Feedback and Connections: A lot of toddler families that usually only attend Pattie's events. This was a good opportunity to let them know about upcoming summer programs. We had a larger group b/c the local ballet studio needed a place to dance at the last minute so a big group came over to add a little pizzaz to our program.
- Notes: While I'd prefer to have staff to help out and there were some other ideas I didn't use - There is a bird on your head craft etc. - this went really well overall.
