The event will run from 9:30am - 11:30am. This is a district wide event that gives local PTAs the opportunity to treat their award winners to a lovely meal and a morning out among their peers. McMenamin's Anderson School 18607 Bothell Way NE Bothell, WA Local PTAs typically will invite their principal, executive team and their local award winners (e.g., Golden Acorn, Outstanding Educator, Outstanding Advocate, etc.). 'Official' invites will be available soon, but in order to allow their honored guests time to plan for the event, local PTAs are encouraged to begin making their invitations to administrators and board members now and to award winners as soon as they have been announced. Traditionally, each Local PTA is responsible for the cost of its attendees. The cost this year is $20/person. Please write a check for your whole group to Northshore Council PTSA.
