Fundraising Opportunities Coming Up

Dear Families,

We have three fundraising opportunities coming up:

1. The Spooktacular Middle School Dance, is this Friday, October 26, 2012, from 6:45 - 9:00.  The cost is $4.00 with costume/$5.00 without.
   
   I know this is late notice, but i am looking for five students/families to make  baked goods for the dance,  you will be able to get 5% of the total proceeds from the dance for their field trip account.
   
   Also, there will be a raffle at the dance.  All students who attend, will have there name placed in a raffle.  The winner will get 25% of the dance proceeds into their field trip account.
   
2. February Calendar Raffle:  We have started the process of collecting donations for the February Raffle.  If you work for a business or know someone who works for a business that would be able to donate, please let me know.
   
   The raffle works like this:
   Each day during the month of February, different items from local businesses will be raffled off.  The winner for that day is placed back into the raffle.
   
   Last year we made $7090 on the raffle, the most we have ever made on a fundraiser.
   
3. Pie Sale - We will be selling home made apple and pumpkin pies for the Thanksgiving holiday.  I need eight students to pick apples next Tuesday.  We will be meeting at Adam's Orchard, on Old Stagecoach Road, in Williston, at 3:15.  Students are expected to find their own ride to the orchard and have an adult with them.  It should not take more than an hour to pick the apples.  More information about the pie sale will coming shortly.

Thank you for all your hard work.
