Travelling this summer? To ensure timely registration, and avoid late fee, you can pre-register for the next session by giving your check. When online registration is open in July, you can complete the registration formality online. Pre-registration folks will be at the rotunda desk to collect your checks. Hope all the families will join us back in the fall session. NOTE: New families cannot pre-register. Here is the fee structure for next year. It has increased some but at the same time better tax benefits are available to offset the change. Starting this year, approximately 2/3rd of the total fee can be treated as Tax deductible Charitable donation. Family fee – $150 – Family/Adult membership (Not optional) Bala Vihar fees for 1 child – $175, Bala Vihar fees for 2 or more kids – $350 Br Prabodh Chaitanya ji has been coming to Alpharetta almost every year for a week long Yagna and we always look forward to his lectures, meditation sessions, satsang. But this year he has decided to spent time with the whole family at a Family Retreat for 2 days. CMA is organizing this retreat and all the details of registration will be available soon. Please mark July 21-22 for the retreat. See Yagna and retreat details in the flyer below:
Pre –registration for the next session will be done in May. Hope all the families will join us back in the fall session. Before this session ends, do talk to us about where you would like to help as a volunteer in the coming session. You can talk to any of the current volunteers and start to work with them. We need your enthusiasm and ideas in the following areas:
Also, we would like to hear your suggestions and feedback about Bala Vihar and CMA activities, adult groups that will help make CMA better. Email us or give your feedback to the front desk volunteers in the rotunda. The 3rd grade classes and older kids will do a class performance of songs/skit/video as part of the annual day in the assembly. The parents are encouraged to attend this presentation and appreciate the creativity of the kids. Hope you are also helping the class teacher with your kid’s program.
