Each year at Mayfaire, attendees can sign their children (or themselves!) up for a variety of “pick-a-parties.”  These are small, themed gatherings hosted by Helman families, many of which feature special time with beloved teachers. See one listed below that just fits the interests and age group of your child? Space is limited, so check your calendars and get to Mayfaire early to sign up for a spot!!

(All money collected from pick-a-party sign-ups goes directly to the PTA, not the hosts.)
