Bear News - Sept 22, 2017

FALL FESTIVAL

The FF packets went home this week, including a sheet to order wristbands (due 10/16), FF t-shirts (due 9/29), and Sponsorship forms (due 9/29). You can find all the forms here on our Bear PTA blog - http://bearexplorationpta.blogspot.com/. Keep sending in those order forms as well as the commitment for baked good or raffle basket items.

The deadline to turn in a Sponsorship form has been extended to Friday, September 29. For $100, your company will be recognized on a sign that hangs at the school year-round. For $250, your company will be on the sign and on the FF t-shirt. You can find a Sponsorship form here.

DISCOUNT CARD

The Discount Card campaign was a HUGE success! We had two students who went over and beyond expectations. Both of these third-graders won the grand prize of an iPad Mini.

Lynn Nguyen – SOLD 360 cards!!!
McKenzie Craymer – sold 350 cards

For every 10 cards sold, a student had a chance to win $100. The winner of the drawing was Luke Collum-Jones.

We will be taking 2 school buses of children to Chuck E. Cheese’s! If you haven’t turned in your money or your cards, please do so immediately. If you would still like to sell more cards, please send a note in to the PTA. We will keep sending them to you as long as you want to sell them!
