SUMMER ADVENTURE
TEACHER FEATURESummer Adventure Teacher Feature:
This summer Diane Farlow will be teaching 1st/2nd grade classes for all three sessions of Summer Adventure. Diane actually began her career in teaching here at PDMSS as a student teacher many years ago. She then went on to teach at Juan Cabrillo before taking a leave to spend time with her young children. She has been the reading specialist at Pt. Dume for the past three years and making a huge difference in the lives of our young readers. This summer she will be teaching Beachy Keen, Artist to Artist, and Crazy for Habitats.
Some of our classes are beginning to close out with full enrollment; whereas, others are low in enrollment and may need to be canceled. If you are interested in signing up for Summer Adventure and have not done so, please take the time to do it this week. It is offered here at Pt. Dume for all students grades K-6
from 8:30-12:30 starting June 25th-July20th. After school care will be provided by Children's Creative Workshop. Summer Adventure registration forms are online at www.smmpta.org or available in the front office. Please contact me with any questions or concerns at [email protected] or (310) 457-9370 ext.78101.

Admission is free, no registration is required and the public is highly encouraged to attend and participate. Led by the nonprofit American Independent Business Alliance (AMIBA), the Strength in Numbers seminar is designed to bring together the various interests engaged in local- community serving business and to build a coalition to stimulate local business and the economy. The purpose of the seminar is to educate and provide participants with a solid understanding of keys to successful local business alliances and best practices for a range of activities and campaigns. The seminar begins with a presentation on the economic, civic and environmental benefits of independent, community based businesses and their coexistence with regional and national stores. Examples from successful campaigns in numerous communities are given to illustrate “Buy Local” campaigns, programs to nurture local entrepreneurs, and policy initiatives. The seminar then moves into workshops focused on planning and implementation to help participants develop clear ideas about priority actions, necessary resources, realistic timelines and how to take immediate action. Workshop topics may include successful organization of “Buy Local” campaigns; building local entrepreneurism; developing local and social media; strengthening branding and funding; and engaging local interest groups, associations, and the local government.
