Discount Card Fundraiser Success!
Bear Family! Thank you so much for your amazing support of our Discount Card Fundraiser. We raised almost $45,000! Congratulations to Ellis Williams for being our top seller and Brooklyn Bradford for being our close second. Congratulations to Carson McCall for being our every-10-cards drawing winner! More info to come on our reward for those that sold 25+ cards!
Bear Wear
This year, our Bear Wear Store will be online and handled through AKD. The web store will open certain times throughout the year. *Your order will be ready approximately 4 weeks after the order deadline unless supply chains are interrupted. You will be contacted by AKD if that is the case. You will have an opportunity to pick up your order or have it shipped directly to you for an extra fee.
Our next Bear Wear order window is October 18-November 1. Bear Exploration Center shirts, outerwear, and many other great Bear Wear items will be available for purchase by visiting tinyurl.com/BearWearStore starting October 18. Please contact Kristin Allen at KristinAllen.PTSA@gmail.com with any questions.
Spirit Night
Krystal Williams has worked hard to line up Spirit Nights for us again this year. Thanks to our Bear community and El Taco for making our first spirit night a success. We were able to raise $170 for our school! The next spirit night is at Buff City Soap on October 6 from 4:00 to 7:00pm. Visit https://www.facebook.com/BuffCitySoapMontgomery for more information about Buff City Soap. This Spirit Night is extra special because we *can* use our Bear Discount Cards for this event AND Buff City Soap will make a 10% donation to the PTA. Don’t forget to place your receipt in the Bear bucket at Buff City Soap on October 6! Please contact Krystal Williams at krystalwilliams5000@gmail.com with any questions.
Fall Festival
Bear PTA is saddened to announce the Fall Festival will be postponed until spring of 2022. We take the responsibility for the safety and well-being of our Bear family very seriously. We can’t wait to SHAKE, RATTLE and ROLL this spring. Stay tuned.
Mabel’s Labels
Mabel’s Labels can help you label ALL of your child’s items. They have committed to give back 20% of anything we purchase and already donated almost $200 to our PTA. Go to campaigns.mabelslabels.com and search for Bear Exploration Center PTA to grab some super fun (and practical!) labels to help your children keep up with all their stuff! Please contact Anna Wamsted at arwamsted@gmail.com with any questions.
