Deadline for School Supply Orders!
 
There are only a few days left to order your child's exact, teacher requested school supplies from Sprout! The store will close on July 17th at midnight.  Be finished shopping in just a few clicks at www.sproutsupplies.com/supplykits and use school code DES002.  Relax the rest of the summer, Sprout has you covered!
 

Discovery's Garden Needs Your Help
 
Please sign up for one week this summer to water the garden plot daily, weed and harvest foods. Families are welcome to keep the vegetables harvested or make a delivery to AFAC.

Families are signed up through July, but we still need some help in August!
