Come for a fun evening of games, food, the popular teacher raffle, silent auction, a new Dollar Store, the famous cake walk, and lots of community spirit.

There are some other ways that you can help:
1. Donate a cake for the cake walk
2. Each family is encouraged to donate five items for the Dollar Store. They should be inexpensive items such as stickers, matchbox cars, jump ropes, and other fun, inexpensive items that children would like. These items should be new or gently used. Items may be dropped off in the office anytime.
