66 Days

January 1 is 66 days away. One moment that feels like hope is right around the corner. It will be here before we know it!

However, there are other moments. Like the one last night. Where 66 days feels like a lifetime. Like an exciting vacation that will never get here. (Considering I had that moment this summer, I am convinced something will happen and the election will be postponed)
I. can't. wait.

On Wednesday I am meeting with other staff and board members regarding preschool options.

Thursday brings the Hall of Fame lunch and an Educational Meeting that night.

Fairly busy week ahead.


The Resource Committee is still meeting on October 9th. The main focus of this meeting will be on the Planetarium move from Broad Ripple to Tech. I have some major concerns regarding this move. Hopefully we will have our questions answered at the meeting. If you are concerned about this please come. If you have questions, send them to us, as a board, or me. I will make sure I ask them.

Enjoy your weekend.
