Boston Update and Calendar Raffle

Dear Families,

This year, we have been doing a great job on fundraising for Boston.
Thanks to the work that you all have done, we are in the best position
financially that we have ever been in. We only need to raised $18,000
more. As you may know, we have just started the Calendar Raffle. Since
the calendar raffle is put together all by donated items, we get 100% of
the profit. This means if each student in the middle school sells five,
we could earn approximately $15,000. That would put us very close to our
goal.

Before I explain the raffle, I just wanted to acknowledge that we raised
over $900 with the candle fundraiser. I want to publicly thank Paula Cary
and Aneita Menard for putting this together. We are hoping to get the
candles out to students before break.

The calendar raffle was put together by Michelle Anemikos and Heidi
Slayton. They really put a lot of time and effort into this project.
Please thank them the next time you see them.

I appreciate the hard work that everyone has put in and I can guarantee
that your student will have an unforgetable time in Boston. This will be
a trip that they will remember the rest of their lives.

Thanks,
Joe
