GLO BINGO Friday, January 20th
Happy New Year! Hoping everyone had a wonderful holiday season with friends & family!!
If you have the holiday blues, here’s the perfect remedy…Glo BINGO!!!! Mark your calendars for Friday, January 20th!! This event is a great way to get rid of those holiday blues and a perfect opportunity to get together with friends (or make new ones!!). Get a table together with other class parents and have fun!

Of course, we cannot pull off a successful event without a little help from you.
We are currently looking for bingo round sponsors ($100), donations (gift cards, event tickets such as Blues/Fox Theatre, silent auction baskets, Lottery tickets, etc). Did you get alcohol for the holidays that you don’t want? We can take that off of your hands, too.

Sponsorship/Donation forms will be sent home in this week’s Friday Folder. Items may be dropped off at the school office or we can make arrangements to pick them up (please contact Sarah Mossa or Kelley Gaither via Fast Direct to make arrangements).

Thank you, in advance, for your support of this fundraiser! It is sure to be a FUN event, so we hope to see you there!!

The school receives different percentages back on each card purchased. If you know you’ll be shopping at a specific store (ie shopnsave, etc) or dining at a specific restaurant (ie olive garden, etc), or paying your store charge (ie kohl’s, etc), please think about purchasing them from school. Thanks for your support!
