Gala


Mardi Gras Gala Baskets 

    

   


As you know our Mardi Gras Gala is quickly approaching and we are in charge of providing two baskets per grade  for the Gala’s Silent Auction. 
We would appreciate if you can send the items or the money with your child or give it to Mrs. Heaton no later than January 18th. Remember, the donation is tax deductible.
Also, we are looking for Mardi Gras items or gift certificates to round out all of the baskets. If you have any suggestions or can arrange a donation from a store or restaurant, please contact Mrs. Heaton.
          
Should you have any questions, please give the room moms a call.
