Great Things Sprout from Children Who Garden

The Dallas chapter had an exciting 2007-2008 program year when they partnered with the City of Laurel and the Laurel School District to create this Outdoor Classroom program. Dallas Continentals believe when parents, teachers and the community work together on projects like outdoor classrooms, a place where students are engaged in hands on experiences outside the traditional classroom setting, everyone succeeds.

Dallas Chapter Host the African University Choir

Dallas Chapter of Continental Societies, partnered with the North Texas Conference (NTC) of the United Methodist Church when they invited the choir from Africa University, Zimbabwe, to come to the United States of America and itinerate in the Greater Dallas-Fort Worth Metropolitan area. Africa University is a United Methodist Church institution of higher learning established in Old Mutare, Zimbabwe in 1992.

Dallas Continentals are on Board with Literacy

As Literacy is one of the Continental Societies, Incorporated National thrusts, numerous opportunities for the Dallas chapter to both sponsor and participate in Read-In’s are available to us. The 2007-2008 activity year of the Dallas chapter has seen us participate in a minimum of six (6) of these encompassing two states and thousands of students and families members.

Essay Writing Contest/Young Authors Award Banquet

An event that has been established as a tradition in Dallas Continental's partnership with Stults Road Elementary School, the ALL school essay writing contest and awards banquet is a highlight for students, teachers, and parents each year. This year's topic "Someone Special to Me" was selected for multiple reasons.

Dallas Chapters Partners with Plano Children's Medical Clinic
