Georgina, Megan and Ashley have been friends since kindergarden,
and with the the twins having their birthday on the 28th of
March and Georgina on the 29th it was a busy month. Several
years ago the girls did a joint birthday party it just made
sense and they decided to have a skate party. This years the
girls started talking and decided that it would like to do something
together again. Georgina skates at the Watford skating club
and had joined Megan and Ashley several times over the winter
skating season. They remembered the fun that they had had several
years ago and it became a skating party.
With the girls getting older and wanting to invite friends
from school and family we decided that the girls should ask
for donations to a cause instead of having presents. All the
girls love animals so I suggested a couple centres and Georgina
was familiar with your centre because we had adopted one of
our cats from you. She talked to the twins and they were also
familiar with you so it was decided. The gemini complex was
booked for April 3 from 5:30 to 7:30 pm, a birthday flyer was
sent out inviting 25 kids from Adelaide school to a family skate,
along with some other friends and family. As you know we got
tremendous support in donations recognizing it was a great cause.
We had a great turnout to enjoy the skating time, with cake,
snacks, drinks, and a couple draws. The girls had a great time
and took the donation box home and were very surprised with
the final tally of $405.00.
On the picture I sent you from left to right it
is Georgina, you and OD, Megan and Ashley. This expereince has
inspired their interest in giving back to the community and in
volunteering with animals. So thank you for your encouraging words
and appreciation to the girls.
