A Note of Thanks

By Jenn Grubb Editor/Publisher Macaroni Kid Colorado Springs January 1, 2024

 


Greetings, Colorado Springs!

As we bid farewell to the old and embrace the new, I wanted to take a moment to extend my sincere gratitude to each and every one of you for your unwavering support throughout the past year. It has been a year of tremendous growth for both myself and Macaroni KID, and none of it would have been possible without your encouragement.

Looking ahead, there's a lot in store to make Macaroni KID even more exciting. I'm thrilled to share some upcoming ventures, including Monthly Macaroni Mini's with Mandy—a series of monthly mini photo sessions revolving around unique themes or holidays at an irresistible price.

Additionally, get ready for Macaroni Mommy Mondays, where we can engage in live talks every Monday night. Whether it's weekly topics or casual mom-to-mom conversations, these sessions are designed for us to connect in a lighthearted manner.

For those who love playdates with a creative twist, Monthly Meetups at Brush Crazy will provide an opportunity for parents and kids alike to showcase their artistic talents in a fun environment.

I'll also be making regular appearances at Texas Roadhouse to support Kids Night. Come say hello, enjoy a $2.99 kids meal, and spin the wheel of prizes for a chance at some fantastic surprises.

And of course, mark your calendars for the event of the season in May! FIND YOUR FAMILY FUN 2024 Combining forces with "May the 4th be with you," the day promises a spectacular lineup, Think Star Wars of course, and we will have "thatman" (batman and his mobile), GhostBusters, a parade of mascots (Switchbacks, LittleFins, etc.), and potential visits from comic book shops since it is also "free comic day." The event will be packed with raffles, prizes, music, and family fun. Save the date—May 4th!
