Dear Belleview Community,

October is here, and we have another fun Belleview evening coming up!

Spirit Night is This Week!

Join us on Thursday, October 8 for Belleview Spirit Night! We'll kick things off at 5:00 p.m. with a pregame pizza party at Belleview before heading over to Stutler Bowl for the Cherry Creek High School football game. After seeing so many Creek students show up for Belleview at Fallapalooza, we would love to return the support and fill the stands with Belleview families cheering on Creek! A huge thank-you again to Meghan Babcock for putting this event together and making it such a fun opportunity for our families to spend another evening together.

If you haven't registered yet, head over to BelleviewPTCO.org. Grab your Belleview gear, bring the family, and come join us!

15 Sponsors...and Counting!

We also want to give a very well-deserved thank-you to David Ettenger, who has been working incredibly hard behind the scenes to build sponsorship support for Belleview. Thanks to his efforts, Belleview already has 15 sponsors, and he isn't finished yet! David is continuing to seek additional sponsors as we look ahead to the Belleview Bash.

This is also an area where you can help.

Think about the businesses you interact with every day. Maybe you own a business, work for a company that supports local schools, know a neighborhood business owner, or simply have a connection within our community. Sometimes all it takes is making an introduction.

Our local businesses and community partners play an important role in helping PTCO provide the programs, events, resources, and experiences our students enjoy throughout the year. If you know a business or organization that may be interested in supporting Belleview, please reach out to us. We would love to connect with them!

And David—thank you. Fifteen sponsors is incredible, and we are so grateful for the time and effort you have put into supporting our school.

We Really Do Need You: Co-Presidents-Elect

We've mentioned this before, but this week we want to make the ask a little more directly:

Belleview PTCO is looking for our next Co-Presidents. Mel and I are currently serving as Co-Presidents for the 2026–2027 school year, and we are looking for Co-Presidents-Elect to join us this year, learn alongside us, and step into the Co-President roles next year.

And before you immediately think, Oh, I could never do that... hear us out.

You do not need to walk in knowing how PTCO works. You don't need to have chaired five committees. You don't need to know every family at Belleview. And you certainly don't have to figure it all out on your own. That's the whole reason for having a President-Elect year.

You have the opportunity to spend this year alongside us—learning how things work, meeting our incredible chairs and volunteers, seeing what happens behind the scenes, asking questions, and gradually becoming comfortable with the role before it's yours.

What you do need is a love for Belleview, a willingness to get involved, and a desire to help continue building this wonderful community. If you've even thought about it, please reach out to us. Asking questions does not mean you're committing to the position. Come talk to us. We'd be happy to tell you what the role actually looks like—the fun parts, the busy parts, and everything in between.

Belleview has an incredible group of parents, and we know our next leaders are somewhere among you. Maybe it's you.

As always, please visit BelleviewPTCO.org for upcoming events, volunteer opportunities, and ways to get involved.

Have a wonderful week, Belleview! We hope to see you Thursday night!

Warmly,

Manjari Bhat & Mel Fry
PTCO Co-Presidents (2026–2027)
