Culver's Night - May 10th

Our final "Culver's Night" fundraiser will take place Monday, May 10th!

Just like last time, students will be receiving "coupons" to hand out to anyone and everyone who might come to support us that evening. The Culver's restaurant in Lake Hallie (by Wal-Mart) is generously donating 10% of the sales receipts from those who present coupons anytime during that day. These proceeds will benefit our "general fund" for tips and busing.

Since our next Lunch & Learn Meeting is May 3rd, students can pick up their coupons at that time.

Oh, and don't forget, May 3rd is also the day that our Butter braids come in for pick up (after school).

Butter Braid Orders Due April 12

Our Butter Braid sale kicked off last week on March 29th, when forms were distributed at our Lunch meeting.

Be sure to gather orders from friends, family members, co-workers, neighbors, and anyone you can think of! This was a very good fundraiser for us last year, and I'm hoping for good results this time around as well, given that we may have some "repeat" customers.

Order forms and payments are due to Mrs. Welle by April 12th. Don't miss out on this last chance to raise money for your general fund (tips & busing) obligations!

Also, please note that you (or a representative) must be able to pick up any orders after school on May 3rd. They need to be delivered (or placed in a freezer) immediately, as they will arrive frozen).

Current Plans for Concessions Stand

We still have some planning to finish for our concessions stand at Southview Elementary School on April 10th. When we met on the 29th of March, this was the work schedule/donations list we came up with. Note the need for donations of Pepsi products from anyone and everyone.

Since I last meet with students, some good news:
  • Pepsi has agreed to donate use of a concessions trailer (eliminating the need for us to find a tent/tables)
  • Pepsi will handle the drop-off/pick up of the trailer, so that's one less thing we have to arrange for. (though drop-off time is still TBD at the time of this posting).

However, this still leaves some unanswered questions that we will need to discuss at our last planning meeting Wednesday at Lunch. Such as:

  1. Can anyone (student or parent) be present at Southview on the evening of the 9th to get keys/instructions, to help set it up and collect donated items? I will be picking up the bun order in Eau Claire and will need to drop it off at the site...I can help with anything after that, but I can't be there right after school.
  2. We will need confirmations on all donations of time and supplies. We need to make sure everything we need will actually be/get there when we need it.
  3. Anything we need to add to the menu? It may be a bit sparse at this point...
  4. We need to set prices for concessions items & make signs
