Thank you for supporting Head Start

To the editor:

CCS Early Learning-Meadow Lakes Center would like to thank several of our local businesses that supported our two big center fundraisers this year. These businesses each made generous contributions toward our 12th annual Spaghetti Dinner and Live/Silent Auction, which also featured a raffle drawing on a 2011 four-wheeler and meat trailer. The wheeler was offered at discount by Arctic Cat, and the meat trailer was discounted to us by Stephen Phillips.

We know that the businesses in our community have many options when considering which programs and services to support. We take your decision to partner with CCS very seriously. Because you have put your trust in us, we pledge to honor this by doing all that we can to make a positive difference in the families and the lives of the young children we serve. Our combined investment in these critical early years will certainly reap dividends in individual lives and for our community well into the future.

CCS Early Learning has been providing quality early care and education programs for more than 40 years. We operate in five communities and serve approximately 400 children and their families each year. Our agency relies heavily on volunteer support and community donations.

On behalf of CCS at the Head Start Meadow Lakes Center, we want to thank the following for their support: Hair Matters (Kate); Hallmark Locating; All About You Spa; James Coccia; George Gumfery; Leanne (Painting); Wendy Popper; Mt2 Tools; Wytchwood Herbal Shoppe (Rhonda Gruber); Mocha Moose; Cadillac Café; The Baby Store; Hula Hands; Poppers Mill; Big Lake IGA; Meadow Lakes Laundry Mat; Park Place Storage; Northern Outfitters; Carrs; House Of Bread; American Legion Post No. 35; Three Bears and Safeway Wasilla.

We would also like to thank our community members who volunteered their time that evening to support such a worthy cause. Everyone’s support is greatly appreciated!
