Chippery Cookie Dough Sale

As many of you know, our PTA sponsors many activities to enrich the educational experience of our students. Several of these activities require a large financial commitment which makes fundraising necessary. Our PTA is proud to be partnering with Big Kahuna this fall to run a fundraising campaign.

The program we have selected is a cookie dough/discount ticket combo sale.

You have 8 flavors of award-winning cookie dough to choose from. The cookie dough is The Chippery brand, which is the gourmet division of Otis Spunkmeyer. Each has 48 frozen pre-portioned cookies. The boxes sell for $15 each. DELICIOUS!!!

The discount ticket features 7 local merchants (40 coupons total): Subway, Cutter’s Point Cove, Taco Del Mar, Cold Stone, Applebee’s Restaurant, Papa John’s Azteca Mexican Restaurant. This card has “buy one, get one free” discount offers and is good through October 2010. It sells for $15 and will pay for itself after a couple of uses. You start saving money after that!

In addition to the regular prize program, any student who sells 5 items or more will be invited to the Big Kahuna inflatable party! Any student who sells 15 itmes or more will be invited to the Big Kahuna “HUMMER LIMO” RIDE & LUNCH (which includes the inflatable party too)! The Big Kahuna prize program is cumulative, so whatever prize they reach, they get all the prizes under that as well.

Your participation is greatly needed!! We are raising money for field trips, assemblies, and classroom equipment. Every student at Lake Louise Elementary will benefit from this fundraiser! If every student sells 5 items we will meet our financial goal. Look for more information coming home September 14th. The sale dates are September 14th through October 2nd.

Your assistance in helping your student with this fundraising program is greatly appreciated. Our goal is not only to raise needed money but to keep this short, simple and fun. We thank you in advance for helping to make this campaign a great success!

Save Tyson labels to make money

In case you haven't yet heard PTA has a goal this year to send every student on an all-expense-paid field trip. Wow! Isn't that exciting! We think so. To do this we need to raise at least $4000.

Tyson foods will give our school 24 cents for every label we send in. Do you buy Tyson Any'tizers or Chicken Strips or even canned meat? All of them have a Tyson A+ label. Clip that label and send it to school with your student.

Here are two examples of what needs to be clipped and sent in:

We also collect Box Tops for Education and Campbell's Labels for Education. More on that next week!
