Happy February! Sadly, the groundhog saw his shadow so six more weeks of winter. I would like to
thank everyone for their patience with the closures due to the recent snowstorm. We missed seeing everyone and are happy to return to a normal routine.

SPRING CONSIGNMENT SALE
The spring sale will be the week of March 9th. Planning has begun for the spring consignment sale.
The fall and spring sales are our 2 major fundraising activities at 4CCN. Everyone’s participation is required for the
success of the sale. Money raised from the sale pays for field trips, playground equipment, and maintenance, as
well as to purchase materials for the classrooms. Your cooperation helps us put on this huge event.
FEBRUARY SNACKS
This month the children will enjoy the following snacks: crackers and cheese, goldfish and apple juice, Cheerios and
yogurt, and 4CCN trail mix (cereal and raisins). Please let your child’s teachers know if there is a snack they should
not eat.
4CCN CAMP
We are so excited for camp this June. Our first week is almost full. If you are interested in signing up, you can
register through our website or stop into the office.
VALENTINE POEM
I’m a little Valentine, Red and White
With ribbons and lace,
I’m a beautiful sight.
I can say, “I love you,”
On Valentine’s Day
Just put me in an envelope,
And give me away.
