Arbor Bay School, 1017 Cedar St.

Please join the Cupid Crew at Arbor Bay School in making valentines for residents of the San Carlos Elms, or for your family and friends! We have plenty of art supplies or bring your own! This is a terrific way to brighten the day of community members and your loved ones too! Each card is sure to bring a BIG smile, because you care! This event is part of Community Service Saturday.

Target Audience: All ages are welcome to participate! Ideal for toddlers, teens and seniors!

All over town!

Since its inception in 1999, the Week of the Family Committee has designated the Monday of the week as a time reserved for families to stay at home and do something specifically with their family. It is hoped that reserving a set time each week for family time will become habit-forming.

Family Activity Day was started by Week of the Family founder, and former Mayor, Don Eaton in 1999. The event is for everyone. You are encouraged to “adopt” friends and neighbors who would enjoy an evening of family activities.

Ideas for things to do as a family:

• Play board or card games
• Get out the family photo album
• Make up a play or story
• Make dinner—everyone contributes a dish
• Make a family calendar
• Read a book aloud (book lists are available at the library)
• Write letters to grandparents or other family members
• Draw or paint a picture
• Learn how to use a compass
• Pull out your old records, tapes, CDs, then listen to and discuss music
• Tell stories from your family history
• Go to the library
• Bake bread
• Start a family journal
• Sing

Target Audience: All San Carlos Families
