A slide show in the foyer showcased pictures from the past 14 years. “So, there are some old pictures and some new pictures of parents, children, and staff that were with Parent Link Centre,” stated Tasha Homeniuk, Support Coordinator for PLC, said, “There are a lot of good memories in these pictures and they are really fun to look at because they show when some of the kids were babies and now they are teenagers. Some of these families attended tonight’s potluck.

For activities, we made a memory quilt where each of the parents decorated and coloured one of the cloth squares. We also photocopied these pictures so the children could decorate them and put them on a bulletin board. Then every month, we have a potluck and we have a theme. This month’s theme was letters of the month and to carry on with that, we kept it on with the letter m and m is for memories so families brought in food that was from their favourite memories from Parent Link Centre. So, if they liked the time we had pie day, they brought a pie, if they liked when we did macaroni necklaces, they brought in macaroni, if they liked Reindeer Lane, they brought reindeer shape cookies.”
