MAPLEWOOD PARENTS:  The Maplewood Parents email list has almost 30 families now!  It’s an email list for parents of very young children, primarily under the age of five.  This group has occasional playgroups at April Hill Park and parties at members’ homes.  Maplewood Parents sometimes make group purchases as well.  This is a great way to get to know nearby parents and their kids!  For more information, please contact Suzi at suzifei@yahoo.com
