We finished three weeks of 6th grade Outdoor Science Camp with most of our elementary schools. The students had a great time up in the mountains learning about outdoor science and participating in hiking, science activities, archery and rock climbing. Parents, teachers and students have given us positive feedback on the opportunity afforded to the students to be able to attend this three day experience. I cannot thank enough the Boys Scouts of America Greater Los Angeles team who made this happen. We have our last four schools attending this week and what a great way to end Spring Break by heading up to camp. On the second night, Brightwood and Emery Park students were very fortunate to experience snow and wake up to freshly fallen snow everywhere. Many of the students had never seen, touched or witnessed snow fall. It was a wonderful experience.
Joanna Vargas and her Pumpkin Run Team presented a check for over $7,000 to AEF for the partnership we have with the Downtown Alhambra Business Association (DABA) fundraising for the students of the Alhambra USD. Each year AEF collaborates with DABA to raise funds from the Pumpkin Run and so far the Pumpkin Run has contributed a total of over $21,000 to AEF. We are already preparing for the 2024 Run in October!

Each year the Pasadena Showcase House offers a unique experience to tour a home that has been fully transformed. This year's home is the Potter Daniels Manor, a striking English Tudor Revival Style estate designed by the Postle Company of Los Angeles, builders of the Pasadena Playhouse. The manor, set behind a pair of ornate iron gates and set on a verdant acre of land, boasts a storied background coupled with a prestigious designation as a Pasadena City Landmark. With its elegant façade, rich details and old-world charm, the estate provides the idyllic backdrop for an evening of enchantment.
Pasadena Showcase House for the Arts is an all-volunteer organization. With the hard work and dedication of its 200+ members, the organization raises funds from its major benefit, the Pasadena Showcase House of Design—one of the oldest, largest, and most successful home and garden tours in the country. In addition to producing the Showcase House, members volunteer their time toward the organization's four philanthropic initiatives: Since 1948, they have donated over $25 million dollars to support art and music throughout the region.
