Cookie Day
Monday, April 16, 2012
Please use your best creative skills and get a variety together to take to Nashville on Rally Day. Many times years in past we have had an overabundance of chocolate chip & peanut butter cookies. We needhome baked cookies that do not crumble easily and ship well. The cookies will need to be packed in zip lock bags at dozen per bag. This helps the people bagging the cookies to be able to tell if we have enough cookies or not. The cookies will then need to be dropped off at an arranged location in Jackson all day Sunday or Monday morning April 16, 2012, before 9:30am. We will start bagging at 9:00am.
For more information, including cookie drop-off locations across West Tennessee,
Please contact Joan @ 731-784-8117
Also if you could please put your name, address and telephone number (some have used a return address label) on your bags of cookies, this helps us keep track of who donates cookies each year.
Thank you for all you do to help keep homeschooling legal!
Cookies for Rally Day... Why?
WTHEA is a chapter of THEA (Tennessee Home Education Association). We are one of seven chapters across our great state that makes every effort to keep homeschooling legal.
Rally Day is a day WE invite the congressmen and representatives to visit with us and put a face on homeschoolers. We put together a program highlighting our children's skills and invite the legislature to come see us perform. After the program, we treat them to a good lunch. Other chapters are in charge of providing the lunch and other aspects of the program.
We in West Tennessee provide home baked cookies for every office on Capitol Hill. Each secretary is given a dozen fresh cookies to share in the office. This is one very personal touch our civil servants look forward to each year. Homeschool families from all across the state help deliver the cookies we bake to each office.
This is why we bake 180 dozen cookies each year and package them so nicely the Monday before Rally Day. We get to say "thank you" with a simple task many of us do just to have fun with our kids.
