Mixed Bag Fundraiser
The Mixed Bag Fundraiser is back and with new items!. Their catalogs have
many different designs and patterns for totes, lunch bags, scarves, household items
and even storage ideas for home and car!
Share the opportunity with family and friends by providing them information
on how they can purchase items online. The link is found on the instruction sheet
attached to the catalog. If each Dogwood Hill family purchases even one bag, we will
meet our goal!
Any questions, please contact Marcia Walker at [email protected] or
Angela Carreira at [email protected]. We look forward to a successful fundraiser!
