While I Am Out

As maternity leave is quickly approaching, I have been asked, “Who will take over while you are away?” With Monica and I both out, Jon Schilling will be housing in our office and taking over minor duties while we are away for three months enjoying our baby boys. He will be available to answer questions and take phone calls. You can contact him directly at x10333 or by email at [email protected].

Monica and I have been planning the last 6 months, laying out our jobs and working closely with our Life Enrichment Committee to ensure everything runs smoothly during this temporary transition. With that being said, the Life Enrichment Committee has worked hard in planning the next four months of the calendar along with us. Theme dinners, off campus trips and on campus events will go on as normal. The monthly synopsis sheets will continue to be posted in a larger edition of the Roadrunner. There, you will find detailed descriptions of each event, such as tickets prices (if any), where to sign up, location, departure time or time events start. Events will also be posted in the weekly Roadrunner and Monthly Calendar.

Calling All Bakers! Upcoming April Events and More…

Spring is in the air and that means our next Buzy Bee bazaar is coming up shortly! The sale will take place on Thursday, April 14th from 10AM-2PM outside the Bistro facing Plaza North. The Buzy Bees have been working hard at creating new crafts for the sale that you surely won’t want to miss. Not only will we have crafts available but there will also be ceramics for sale and those yummy baked goods. This is the time of the year that we ask for baked good donations from residents and staff on campus. If you are interested in donating one of your specialties, we ask that you call Didi at x8473 or Monica at x8526 and let us know what you will be contributing for the sale.

Not only is the sale taking place but there is so much more to come in April. We all know the song “Take Me Out to The Ballgame” right? The Diamondbacks’ regular season is also upon us and we will be hitting Chase Field on Wednesday, April 6th to see the D-Backs take on the Colorado Rockies.
