April News at TLC

The 4th Annual Kentucky Derby Party is May 5th

 

TLC's 4th Annual Kentucky Derby Party will be held Saturday, May 5th, 2018 at the Shupe Homestead in Longmont. After three wonderful years of hosting the Derby at the beautiful Schlagel Farm (infinite thanks to Vicki and Paul Schlagel for opening their home to us!), we are excited to grow into Shupe Homestead's gorgeous venue. The Shupe Homestead is settled on green meadows with views of the Front Range, and offers an indoor dancing and dining hall set along gardens and ponds. 

All proceeds of the derby - from tickets to sponsorships and everything in between - goes directly to TLC programming and scholarships for kids with special needs or from economically disadvantaged backgrounds.

We have almost 30 generous event sponsors, and room for more if your business or family would like to sponsor.
Download a sponsor application here.

Tickets are $150 each and the event is limited to 200 guests, so don't be ticket buyer #201 and get left out in the cold. $50 of each ticket purchase is tax-deductible*, and all money benefits TLC children. *Please note the original email said $100 was tax-deductible. This is backwards. $100 is our cost and is NOT deductible. $50 of each ticket IS tax-deductible. Thank you!
Purchase tickets here. 

 

 Two views of Shupe Homestead. TLC will take over Shupe Homestead on May 5th with mint juleps, bourbon, televised races, horse betting, live auctions, cigars, and good times for our Kentucky Derby Party in support of our programming.

Parent Toolkit Night: Challenging Behaviors is April 26th

 

The next Parent Toolkit Night is April 26th from 4:30-5:30. We will be talking about emotional literacy and how this directly ties into decreasing challenging behavior with your children (and maybe partner!). As usual, there will be a sign up if you want your child to stay in the afterschool program while you attend and there will be a giveaway.

Not sure if attending is worth it? Read what TLC parents Renee and Russel Shoenbeck thought of their first Parent Toolkit Night at the March session:

 

We love TLC. Let’s just throw that right out there. We love the mission. We love the philosophy. We love that we KNOW our daughter’s life is being enriched by her time spent at TLC. So, when opportunities at TLC present themselves, like Parent Toolkit Nights, we are eager to participate.

Let us explain: Parent Toolkit Nights occur 4-6 times per academic year and are available to parents of students at TLC (prospective parents: this is a wonderful benefit). The Toolkit nights are 60 minutes and are lead by a teacher and a therapist who discuss helpful strategies that are taught in school, then offer ways to incorporate those strategies at home.

Yes, really. The experts in early childhood education are not only willing to teach your child all day long, but they are also willing to teach YOU how to work with your kid (while providing you with snacks, laughs, and childcare). We feel like we could end this right here and invite you to join us, but let’s press on.

Riley and her parents enjoyed the toddler costume party together last October.
RILEY AND HER PARENTS ENJOYED THE TODDLER COSTUME PARTY TOGETHER LAST OCTOBER.

Toolkit nights are spent reviewing things like visual schedules, calm down strategies, problem-solving strategies and more, in a way that bridges the gap from school to home, and helps us help our kids with life-long strategies. The strategies help us communicate with our children better, and, heck, even our significant others (because suddenly people become a lot less annoying when they say “Geeze, my engine is running so slowly!”)

Keep reading Renee and Russell's report over at the TLC blog.

 

All Parent Toolkit Nights are 4:30 - 5:30 PM.

Childcare is provided to TLC students who are 8 weeks to 6 years old. Please let us know if you plan to attend and will need childcare so we can have adequate staffing. Call (303-776-7417), email, or sign up on-site to let us know if you're coming.

 TLC's center-wide rules and an example of clear, consistent rules to help manage challenging behaviors.

 

TLC's Own Clara Shipp is the 2018 Happy Smackah!

This year’s Happy Smackah 5k Fun Run supports our own Clara Shipp! Please come out and support Clara and this event. You can walk, run, skip… whatever gets you to the finish line!

Register here.

Read the Longmont Times Call's profile of Clara and the Happy Smackah race here.

Clara works with TLC Therapeutic Services Manager and Occupational Therapist Shari Karmen during a therapy session at TLC.

Volunteer Appreciation Breakfast


Please join us for a Volunteer Appreciation Breakfast on Tuesday, April 17th, from 7:45 - 9:30 AM. TLC's Executive Director Matt (and a few staff helpers) will be flipping fresh waffles on hot waffle irons for volunteers. Load your waffle up with whatever you like from our topping-full waffle bar, and stay and eat or take and run. We are so appreciative of the work our volunteers do to keep TLC running, funded, and a beacon for children and families in the community.

Please plan to drop in so we can thank YOU for all you do!
