Our Breakfast with Santa is just around the corner on December 14th. We would like to thank all of you in advance for your enthusiasm as a volunteer and as a participant in this upcoming event.
Our raffle is a big part of our Breakfast with Santa Fundraiser. We are in the process of soliciting donated prizes to be raffled. Again this year – in addition to the wonderful single items donated – we will be offering several fun-filled, theme baskets full of Christmas Joy. The baskets have been a huge success in the past, with values of well over $100 each. Each class has chosen a specific theme in hopes that their basket will be filled for the raffle.
Please click here for detail information for your child's class theme and donation information! |
