BASKET RAFFLE
Once again as part of the Fun Festival, we will be having a Basket Raffle. Funds raised from raffle baskets help fund extra resources and activities for our school. Every donation is appreciated!
Themes have been assigned to classes and students are asked to bring in a new item, based on their assigned theme, from Monday, May 11 andno later than Friday May 22. Ideas for items are listed on the back of this letter. Boxes will be placed in the pods outside of the classrooms to collect the donated items. We are also requesting any donations of large baskets that can be used for the gift baskets. Any businesses that donate large items will be mentioned on our Fun Festival site map.
Baskets will be displayed at the school in the days leading up to the Fun Festival and at the event on Thursday June 11. Tickets for the raffle are $2 each or 3 for $5 and will be sold at the Fun Festival.
