A great big thanks go out to some of our very own TETNA people. Thank you to Heidi Hudson-Mairet for organizing the Rummage Sale in June. What a great turn-out!

Katherine Lazarski did a fabulous job on Family Fun Day. The kids were out in droves. The balloons were flying and piñatas popping. Families who attended saw lots of new games and some really cool crafts were added this year. A jazz guitarist and percussionist set the scene. Thanks, Katherine, for all that you did to make the day fun!

Hello, Tosa East Towne neighbors! Let me introduce myself. My husband and I moved to Milwaukee from Pennsylvania in 1996. I am originally from Indiana, but my husband is a Wisconsinite from Janesville.
