2017 Baby Shower: The Tiniest Patriots

We are now 17 families strong! With a goal of 25 families, we are over 50% of our “families goal” for our shower this year. The committee is excited to announce our first arrival, Master Gideon Patrick born 2/2/17 and weighing in at 8-lbs 8-oz.

Our hard work now begins… we look forward to our community supporting our event with donations. Needed are diapers, wipes, baby wash, onesies, outfits, pacifiers and such. Please – no bottles, formula or baby food/cereal. Cash is always appreciated and can be used  where we have a need. Thank you in advance as we could not reach our goals without you!

Donations may be dropped off at the baby shower box in the Madera Clubhouse and at Pam Rodgers home (box on front porch) at 2640 E Sawyer Road (map). Questions? Contact Pam at «babyshower@womenqc.com» or 520-561-7969.

Our next meeting is Wednesday March 8 at 1:00 p.m. in the Kino Conference Room. If you would like to help with this event, please come to the meeting. Remember, you must attend the meetings and help committees to be able to attend the baby shower in May on the Base.
