Waite Park Community School Carnival - May 17 - 5:30 - 8 pm

  

It's the highlight of the year for the kids and we need HELP to make it a success! What can you do that's easy and not very time-consuming?  Take your choice:
  • Donate Pop (we go through over 200 2 liter bottles of pop for our Pop Toss game...and there's a sale at Cub right now) Just bring it to the school office any time during Carnival week.
  • Donate Cakes (for the Cake Walk - they don't have to be homemade, but they can be - they don't even have to be cakes...pies, muffins, tarts, cookies...we'll take anything baked) Bring your offerings to the office May 16 or 17 anytime during school hours.
  • Run a Game (we will give you a shift of 40 minutes and you can even request which game you'd like to run if you volunteer early...it's easy and much more fun to hang out at carnival if you have something to do other than try to wrangle your kids)
  •  Help the Set-up and/or Clean-up Crew (we'd especially like people who are strong and don't mind lifting things..)

If you are willing to do any of the above things, please email us at waite_park_pta@yahoo.com or call Brad Dunham at 612-859-3570.
