That’s Jeanne Zetah in the blue dress. She is the Director of Community Educational Services for the Eden Prairie School District. In the dark blue suit, that’s Roy Terwilliger, President of Community Bank Eden Prairie, and former long-time State Senator representing Eden Prairie and Edina in the Minnesota State Senate. Roy’s bank sponsored the breakfast portion of today’s meeting. (They sponsored last year’s too.)
I attended the 2004 Annual Community Education Partnership meeting today at Pax Christi Church here in Eden Prairie. This event is held each year by the Community Education Department of the Eden Prairie School District. The event is designed to bring together a broad cross section of the community to discuss an issue of interest to the community. This year’s subject was a discussion of intergenerational connections and programs in Eden Prairie.
This is Nicole and Antonia Trovato. Nicole is a Brownie Scout leader. Antonia is her daughter and a Brownie Scout herself. She is also a student at Forest Hills. Nicole and Antonia spoke to the group today (of about 120 people) about their experiences in Girl Scouts. They did a great job!
This is Joel and Jacob Young. Joel is a Cub Scout leader. Jacob is a Cub Scout. They spoke about the importance of scouting and how it has played a positive role in the community, and in their personal lives. They did a great job of communicating positive messages about scouting.
The Community Ed Partnership Breakfast is always a good opportunity for the City, School district, Faith community, and Charitable community to touch base and discuss issues of mutual concern. It’s good to remind ourselves, and others, that we all serve the same community.
