Carrollton Early Childhood PTA
Every Child. One Voice.
As I write my last president's letter, I have been reflecting back on my two years as president.  
As we said when we just celebrated our 50th anniversary, these last two years were filled with
fun, family and friends.  To say that this is a phenomenal group is an understatement.  Being a
member of this group isn't simply about paying your dues to be part of a playgroup, which is
why most of us initially join; it is about lifelong friends that you will make through this fantastic
group.  It is about helping those that can't help themselves and standing up for our children in
our community.  It is about coming together as a group and making a difference.  And I am so
fortunate that you allowed me to be president of such a wonderful group for two rewarding
years.  For that I thank you!

As many of you witnessed at our 50th anniversary celebration during our April meeting, you
can tell that this PTA group has touched many families, whether as a member or those that we
help in the community.  In March alone, we donated over $300 and 500 socks and underwear
to those that so desperately need them in the Carrollton Farmers Branch ISD.  And this is just
a tip of the iceberg of how your time, talent and treasure have helped those in the community
and those inside of our group.  We have had members this year that have gone through some
very tough and heart-wrenching times and in the end, you have stood by them and supported
them even if  you don't know them very well and for that there is no price tag.  

As I end my reign and give up my gavel, I am so excited about the future of the CECPTA and
about the incoming board under the leadership of the new gavel owner, Deborah Ward.  Deb
has been on the board for two years and is very excited about being the new leader of this
fantastic group.  I have known Deb for almost 4 years, I consider her a great friend and I know
she will be extraordinary in leading CECPTA to new heights in 2008-2009.  I look forward to the
activities, ideas and programs the new board is going to bring.

Happy Summer!
