Brayton Presents: Finding Nemo
Brayton Elementary School and the Brayton School PTO present Disney’s Finding Nemo Kids, a musical adaptation of the beloved 2003 Pixar movie Finding Nemo, with new music by award-winning songwriting team Kristen Anderson-Lopez and Robert Lopez.
Marlin, an anxious and over-protective clownfish, lives in the Great Barrier Reef with his kid Nemo, who longs to explore the world beyond their anemone home. But when Nemo is captured and taken to Sydney, Marlin faces his fears and sets off on an epic adventure across the ocean. With the help of lovable characters such as optimistic Dory, laid-back sea turtle Crush, and the supportive Tank Gang, Marlin and Nemo both overcome challenges on their journey to find each other and themselves. Featuring memorable songs such as “Just Keep Swimming,” “Fish Are Friends Not Food,” and “Go With the Flow,” Finding Nemo KIDS brings a vibrant underwater world to life on stage in a story full of family, friendship, and adventure.
Taking place on Thursday, April 11 and Friday, April 12 at 7pm at Brayton Elementary School, tickets are on sale NOW for $10 each. Click here for tickets.

Mimi Zukoff is chair of the Summit Recycling Advisory Committee, and a member of the Summit Environmental Commission, the Summit Free Market Steering Committee, the Multi-town Environmental Commissions Working Group on Pollinators and a founding member of the Summit Area GreenFaith Circle. Although always interested in recycling, Mimi was pulled into the environmental realm when her synagogue, Congregation Ohr Shalom- Summit Jewish Community Center underwent the two year long GreenFaith Certification Program to become a GreenFaith Sanctuary from 2014- 2016. Mimi is particularly drawn to caring for the Earth as a core ethical value in Judaism and was a Jewish Environmental Educator for a number of years. Mimi’s late son, Ben, was an environmentalist and nature lover from his earliest days. She undertakes this work to honor Ben’s memory.

Recycle your stretched plastics at Brayton - help us get a bench!
Brayton's Fourth Grade Girl Scout Troop 42856 would like to help our community responsibly recycle stretched plastics.
If our community can collect more than 500 pounds of plastic refuse (about 40,500 plastic bags), Trex® will donate a high-performance composite bench to Brayton Elementary.
Instead of throwing away your stretched plastics, have your child bring the plastics to Brayton's lobby and place them in the labeled box. The Girl Scout troop will responsibly recycle it. See below for what can be recycled. Questions? Email at troop42856@gmail.com
