Hello Waite Park
Supporters,
As the current co-presidents
of the Waite Park PTA, we want to invite you all to participate in our annual
fundraiser – the Waite Park Spring Social! This is an opportunity for adult
supporters of Waite Park Community School to bid on a variety of silent and
live auction items donated by the many businesses, organizations, and individuals
that support us with their generous contributions and time.
Here is what you can expect
at this event for the ticket price. Food will be provided by The Draft Horse
with desserts by Sarah Jane’s Bakery. Drinks will be offered from Chankaska Creek
Ranch & Winery, Indeed Brewing Company, and Barley John's. There
will be non-alcoholic options, too. Dress up or dress down – it’s your
opportunity to get out for an evening!
You will be able to visit with
other supporters of our school community and participate in fun fundraising
activities. There is a little something
for everyone, including a fantastic Silent and Live Auction! Be prepared to bid
high on these great experiences and items!
If bidding leaves you overwhelmed, take a chance and buy a Mystery Bag containing
a surprise prize from one of our many donors or play the Craft
Beer/Soda/Spirits Pull or Wine Toss – Everyone wins!
The money raised goes
directly to the Waite Park PTA and allows us to:
·
Support classroom fieldtrips and
special classroom academic projects
·
Support school-wide programs, such as Safety Patrol and assemblies
·
Lower barriers to parental
involvement by making transportation available and providing translation
services
·
Bring the community together through
PTA supported activities like Family Dinner Night, Craftstravaganza, Book
Bonanza & Family Dance, Spring Social and Carnival
We want everyone to be
informed and prepared for the event. So here are some key event logistics!
