PreK-2nd Grade Fun Day:

Pre-K through 2nd Grade Fun Day is on June 7th and preparations are underway. This day is 100% PTO organized and funded. There are lots of games that we are able to reuse year after year but we do need some annual supplies to keep it fun and fresh. If you would like to contribute crafts or supplies to this years Fun Day, please visit our Amazon Wishlist here. Third grade Fun Day is separate and those families with a third grader should have already received information and details.

WEEFC’s 2023 Fall Fundraiser – Call for Auction Items & Sponsorships: 

Planning has begun for WEEFC’s Fall 2023 Fundraiser, scheduled for September 30. Tickets will go on sale in late summer, but we could use your help now to ensure the event is a success. We’re currently seeking businesses, artists, musicians, craftsmen, and local stores/sports teams/hotels/theaters that might be willing to provide or donate a service or item for the auction. Whether you’ve got a connection to spa services, lawn care, destination getaways or something in between, we want to hear from you! Interested in helping plan the event? Our next meeting will be Friday, May 12 at 10:30 a.m. at Case House, and everyone is welcome. Please contact Steph Corcoran with auction/event ideas and Katie Strohacker if your business might be interested in sponsoring the event.

Have a great week!
