10.25 Boston Fundraising Update

The Tag Sale was a big success. We raised $1228.50 from the tag sale itself. We also got a $1,000 grant from the The Redducs Foundation. The grant was a very pleasant surprise.

I would like to thank all of you who helped out. Whether it was through donating items, working at the storage unit, baking goods, setting up, or taking down, without you this event would not have been a success.

I would also like to thank ACE Storage in Milton who so kindly donated their space to hold the goods for our tag sale. I would recommend that you would support them for your storage needs.

Schwan's raised just over $1,000.

We now have $23,000 to fundraise.


Middle School Dance
This Friday is the Middle School Halloween Dance, from 6:45-9:00. It is $3.00 with costume, $5.00 without. Because of the football game, students should be dropped off at the back of the school, where the buses drop off and pick up students, and enter at the back door. Once inside the dance, students are not allowed to leave the dance until 9:00, unless they are being picked up early by an adult. All proceeds will go towards the Milton Middle School Boston Trip.

Calendar Raffle
For the next couple of weeks, we will be soliciting donations for our February Calendar raffle. Prior to February, people will buy a calendar and during each day of the month they will have a chance to win a prize. We already have movie tickets and a couple of Vermont Teddy Bears. We have already asked several local businesses to donate to this raffle. We know that we have many awesome parents who work at some very cool places and we are wondering if your place of employment will would consider donating to our cause. If you have something to offer, please contact Michelle Anemikos at 893-4547 or anemikos@comcast.net or contact Heidi Slayton at sherw05468@comcast.net or contact me at 893-3230 ext. 217 or jsmith3@mtsd-vt.org.

Harvest Dinner - Save That Date
The Harvest Dinner will be Thursday, November 17th, from 5:00 - 7:00. This is the opening night of the high school's production of Grease, so make it a dinner and a show. More information to follow.

Thanks,
Joe Smith
