Rain or shine, the show must go on!

Join us at Rogers Field (in front of TOPS) to celebrate our graduates.
Tomorrow, Sunday, June 13th
3-5pm

  • Please do not bring pets due to allergies / Roger's is not a designated dog park
  • Families should bring: blankets/chairs/own food/drink for non-students (there will be limited refreshments available)
Spread the word! If you know anyone who might need a ride, PLEASE let me know, and I will make sure they get one.

We reserved the playfield for our use. Per Seattle Parks and Rec requirements, we had to submit a COVID safety plan. Since Rogers Field is a ballfield, it's called our "Return to Play Plan". I am required to distribute the plan to all attendees, so please see the attached document. Essentially, please bring a mask and wear it when you are not eating or drinking.

Hi All-
Some kids brought up the idea of a parent against student kickball game, which would be really fun, rain or shine (this IS Seattle!). 

I don’t have a good kickball, so please bring one if you do!

Looking forward to seeing everyone. 

Cynthia

Hey gang. I could use an extra long electric extension cable if anyone gets this before heading out. This is for sound. 
Thanks. Jonathan (Lillian’s dad)

Thanks to all the parents who organized this picnic. It's so nice to finally be able to see everyone. Kids definitely had a great time (so did the parents!)

Yay! We made it! Thank you!!

I’d love if someone could share the kids group photo, and the run under the flags video. I was too busy to take photos!

Thank you Tina (instigator organizer), Martha (organizer for food and decorations and…)Jonathan (for the music that made it a party) and Brenda (who made the TOPS books for signing) and everyone else who contributed. 

That was the wettest picnic I have ever been too and yet the most fun I’ve had in a long time.

Well said, Cynthia. Thanks to all that made it happen despite the odds and to all who came for a soaking.

Here are two we took - excuse the thumb in one. There are two in case your child is looking down in one or has bunny ears...

Let me know if you want either of these in a different format or file size.

A copy of the video would be great, we didn't get one.

These are so great!
I love that you had them run through/under the flags. So sweet!

Thanks for sharing the photos.
And thanks to Tina, Martha and Sandra for organizing the event and Cynthia, Jonathan and all the other volunteers. :)
And thanks to Justine, Leslie, Shyla and Dena for working with the school on Passage planning and swag.

Hope everyone has a great last week at TOPS!
