Dear Parents,

Please join us for our closing Community Time at 11:15am. We will be awarding prizes to those students in all grades who have fulfilled their service credit requirements and/or fourth through sixth grade students who have passed the four main prayers. At 11:45 am we will dedicate our community garden on the patio near the circle entrance.

Immediately following Community Time will be our first annual KI BLOCK PARTY in the Ki Parking Lot! Enjoy...
-live music by the Jewveniles
-bouncing in the play castle
-getting your game on with Minute to Win It Challenges
-conquering the Adrenaline Rush Obstacle Course
-eating delicious food for purchase from Frank's Pizza
-show off your baking sales with our Bake-A-Rama Dessert Table

It's going to be a great day filled with good friends, food and FUN!
No RSVP is necessary, just join us for a great day.

If you are not attending the block party or community time please make sure to arrange a meeting place with your child as large portions of the parking lot will be blocked off.
