La Quinta Cove

New showcases have arrived to display historical material.  Museum Manager, Kim Mack, gives us a peek…

Sissor lift in action!

First and fifth grade students exhibit their work in Old Town through May 18! 

I went to the park yesterday with another teacher and we exercised on the equipment and then went to Old Towne for lunch.  What a fun place.  We did pretty good on the equipment with the exception of one of the ones we were not co-coordinated enough to use and our feet couldn’t reach the peddles on the bikes, but the rest were more than enough.  There were a lot of families there having picnics and we got to talk to many people.  Thanks for sharing the news, or I might not have known it was there.  KK

Awards of appreciation went to Andrea Dooley who makes quilts each Thursday with a group of women to send to children with cancer at Ronald McDonald for Good Times.

A few of the volunteers are debriefed after two hours of Nature Preserve clean-up.
 

Beginning tomorrow, April 22, laquintacove.org will follow the progress of the huge mural, commissioned by the City of La Quinta, for the soon-to-open museum in the Village.  There will be interviews with the artist, Andre Blanche, and videos of the entire process of painting a mural 30 feet long and 13 feet high.  Stay tuned…..
