October Update:
Saturday morning was a day of “planting seeds” and learning how to garden at Chicktime Converse. Vivian Macris led the workshop for the MInT cottage. The participants learned how to plant seeds that were germinated, transplant an herb to a larger pot, and hear the word of God and how it resonates with what we choose to plant in our lives.
Thank you Vivian for a great workshop!
May Update:
On June 1st, the San Antonio Delta Zeta Alumnae Chapter spent the morning with Chicktime Converse and the MInT program.
The group shared the importance of staying hydrated during the summer months in South Texas. The moms were each provided with a water cup, adult and child sunscreen, baseball caps for the moms and sunglasses for the children, sandpails, and air fresheners to remind them to “check the back seat”. Participants decorated the water cups and pails with inspirational vinyl stickers created and donated by an alumna. Snack treat included a host of fruits that are great summer snacks that help with hydration. Thank you San Antonio Delta Zeta Alumnae Chapter for selecting Chicktime Converse as a partner for your summer philanthropic event!
