CHIMPANEWS

NOVEMBER 2008
By: Eloise Conn

ENRICHMENT

SUNDAY, NOVEMBER 16

1 – 3 P.M.

HOPE YOU WILL BE THERE


 
   Our October Enrichment Workshop was a great success. We had Girl Scout Troop 957 with us. They made 25 wonderful paper mache pumpkins for the chimps which they brought with them to fill and close the top. They used green tape to cover the hole and brought the ends up to make a stem. They really looked wonderful and we are so grateful to them for doing such a good deed for the chimps.

  For the November enrichment we are planning our sleepover party for the chimps.  We will be stuffing pillows with hay, filling a goodie bag with a sandwich, popcorn, drink etc. We need to have old sheets, pillowcases, blankets if you have any old ratty ones, please donate them to the chimps. For the chimps in the house we plan to have a DVD or tape for them to watch. Any ideas for other things to do on an overnight would be gratefully accepted.

   The weather is beautiful out at Lion Country these days so please step up your observing so we will all be ready for the new software which Bev will  be getting tutored on very soon. The conference will be over on Nov. 4th so Erica and Virginia will be back in Arizona shortly, at which time they will be teaching Bev to teach us.


Holiday
Gathering

The date for the party has been decided for Saturday December 6th at 7 p.m. at Phyllis and Bill Malcom’s home in Homeland. Directions will be sent later.

Since the date comes just one week past Thanksgiving, we are trying very hard to get things settled a bit earlier. If you have not replied to the invitation and stated what you would like to bring for dinner, please do try to return my invitation email  as soon as possible. At this point we have sufficient desserts, so try to offer an appetizer, salad, covered dish or bread, rolls, or soft drinks.
