Fundraisers for next year what to keep/change
Equal Exchange
Corbis
Flower Sale for Mother’s Day – Bulbs and flowers
Wreath Sale – possibly coordinate with LCHS on a vendor and time frame. Another idea was a make your own
wreath session similar to the paint and sip. Check with Heidi Smith for this option?
White Elephant sale at the HT festival? Check with Hal Snyder about this.
Budget change/ color explosion move – Home and School will handle the color explosion for this year. Next year it will
be taken over by Development and the budget will be re-evaluated
Ideas for tuition vouchers – Some ideas were, raffle tickets at meetings and certain events for volunteers. This is in need
of more discussion.
Craft fair moved to April 2017/18 (color run out of our hands) – Thinking about having this the same day as the
Columbia Antique and Craft Fair in June. Will need to talk to Father about the parking lot availability
Ugly sweater Day 12/22/16 either pay to dress down or bring food donation? – Was determined that this should be a
pay dress down day and the date changed to 12/8 or 12/9
Birthday Party for Jesus 12/22/16 – Check with Sister Anna on ideas for this. Bring toiletry items for the homeless
shelters as they are needed sometimes more than food and often forgotten about. Make birthday cards for Jesus.
Mandatory fundraiser for next year/ over summer Put out buyout/letter in May – New and K3/K4 families will not
participate in this fundraiser. Buyout letter will be sent out in May and the candy will be sent home with the children
before the end of the school year. Candy can be sold over the summer and money due at the start of the following
school year. This idea received positive feedback.
