GameWright Game Night – Thursday, May 12

For some more fun during Screen Free Week, please join us for Game Night on Thursday, May 12 from 6:30-8:30pm. This should be an enjoyable family night out.  The games will be provided by GameWright and will be available for purchase that evening. Families are also welcome to bring favorite games from home to play.  There is no obligation to buy–we hope you will join us for a fun evening with other Cottage families. Refreshments will be served.  See the flyer for more information.

Relay for Life – Friday, May 13

Finish off Screen Free Week by joining the Cottage Cougars Team for the Relay for Life at Sharon High School on Friday, May 13th from 3:00-9:00pm. This event, in its second year, is organized by Sharon High School students in partnership with the American Cancer Society.  The relay is a walking event around the track at the high school.  Families do not need to be at the entire event but we will aim to have someone from our team walking at all times.  In addition to the walk itself, there will be activities and games in the center of the track for kids and their families.  The high school students are doing a great job with this event and we’re looking forward to supporting them.  This is a fundraiser for the American Cancer Society and while fundraising is not required, we hope that families will seek contributions towards our team goal. To sign up, visit http://www.relayforlife.org/sharonma  and opt to join our team (Cottage Cougars). Questions? Contact Liv Van Dyke at [email protected].
