Today made me so happy! I had the opportunity to attend the year end Father's Day Program of the capable little participants of Calgary's Ukrainian Sadochok at St. Vladimir's Cultural Centre!

In conversation with Larissa Groch I was so pleased to hear that the volunteer board of Sadochok have put in place fabulous decisions which have made Sadochok grow and grow! In fact, I heard that certain areas of registration for next year are already full, and there is more demand than earlier anticipated. Clearly there is a pent up desire for quality programming in the Ukrainian community, and Sadochok delivers!
Teachers Pani Olena, Pani Valya and Pani Lesia take such gentle care of the children during their time at Sadochok. There is structured time, play time, snack, singing, language learning, crafts, even nap time because for some children Sadochok is also partly a daycare. Sadochok has a lovely working environment because of the professional standards in place, and of course because of the huge hearts involved.

Today's program was ambitiously planned, and overwhelmingly embraced by all the guests. The beaming faces, the little ones dressed in their embroidered finest, just make your heart melt. And when they began their verses, their songs, their lovely little dance moves, everyone in the audience was smeared in smiles - you just have to believe me. How could any baba or dido help but be enchanted in this love fest?

While the brightly colored visual arts are only a part of the children's Sadochok program, I thought to share these with the readers of ukrainiancalgary in the hopes you would pass the message along. Sadochok is growing and it is time to register the little ones in Ukrainian language and culture programs offered here in Calgary!
All the ripples created by the Ukrainian community start with small steps - make sure you reach out, connect and pass it on! Oh, and I really love Sadochok's motto - Make Baba Proud!
