This is one of our biggest events and we need everyone’s help to make it a success.
1st: Raffle tickets went on sale this morning and will continue before and after school for this week in the lobby. A bag of pencils was sent home with each child complete with instructions. If your students didn’t get any pencils just have them stop by the raffle table before or after school. Kids are NOT to take tickets or money to their classrooms. Carnival tickets will go on sale between May 5th-15th.
2nd: We are in need of A LOT of 2 litter pops for the ring toss game. Please help by purchasing a couple on your next grocery trip and dropping them off to the Q1 office. This is one of the kids’ favorite games and they love winning the pop!
3rd: We are still in need of more prizes for the raffle. If you have anything you would like to donate please drop small items off to the Q1 office. For larger items please contact Kristen (khales@questac.org) to arrange for pickup.
4th: If anyone is still in need of volunteer hours this event is a great way to get in a lot of hours. If you are able to help with selling tickets or the night of the carnival please contact Tammy at Tammerlammer@msn.com.
