BPA creates Groupsite page

The Brehm Parents Association would like to invite you to be a part of their online networking group - bpa.groupsite.com.

BPA President Maureen Wielansky started the site.

“We wanted to have a place where parents could connect, share resources and support each other,” Maureen said. “Groupsite is great for e-mailing everyone when you have a question as well as sharing a resource, such as a great Web site. It is also a place where the BPA can keep parents in the loop.”

There are currently 40 members of the BPA’s Groupsite.

“Right now, we are working on getting all the parents to sign into our Groupsite; we only have about 20 percent of our parents signed up, so our communication has been limited,” Maureen said. “We are starting our preparations for Parents’ Weekend, such as staff appreciation, social events and our upcoming race on the Sunday morning of Parents Weekend, so it is essential to have as many of our parents as possible participating in these conversations.”

Maureen said that overall BPA participation has been high, and she is hoping that the Groupsite will keep the momentum going.

“Many parents have signed up and are willing to help, we just want to make sure we are in communication so that is why the parents need to opt into our Groupsite,” she said.

The Groupsite contains a group calendar, discussion boards, profiles of members, file storage, photo galleries and more for members. If you are interested in joining, please visit bpa.groupsite.com or e-mail Dalus Kulich, Brehm Coordinator of Communications, at dkulich@brehm.org.
