Dear Parents of Mr. Desin's and Mrs. Gordon's classes,
Every
year the Big Shanty PTA holds a Spring Carnival with games, bouncies, and more
for the families of Big Shanty and the Kennesaw Community. It is a fantastic
event that the kids, parents and staff love. The date for the Spring Carnival
is Friday, April 24, 2015. More
details about the carnival will be sent at a later date.
This
is not a fund raising event. In order to keep ticket prices low so everyone has
an opportunity to join in the fun, we hold a silent auction with different
themed baskets. Each class is responsible for putting together their basket
through donations.
This
year, our classes will be working together to assemble one basket. The
theme for our team’s basket is Emergency Preparedness. We want this to be the best basket and
are asking all parents in all the classes to donate items appropriate to this
theme. We already have some awesome donations, thanks to Noah Martin's
grandmother! She is secretary to the county manager and was able to get these
items donated for us: smoke detector, carbon dioxide detector, hand cranked
battery emergency radio, fire blanket, first aide kit, head lamp, hard hat,
door ax! If you have contacts for donations, that is all the better!
All
items for the basket need to be turned in to the teacher NO LATER than Friday, April 10th. We know this seems a long way off, but
it is never too early to start looking for items! Not to mention, we have
Spring Break in the midst. Don’t forget to take advantage of sales!
If
you do not have time to purchase items, and would rather make a monetary
donation toward items in the basket, please send your donation in with your
child in an envelope addressed to: Teresa and indicate that it is
for the carnival
basket. We will then use the money collected to purchase items for the
basket, a big basket/container to hold all of the items, or purchase gift cards
to put in the basket.
If
you have any questions, please feel free to contact either of the
room mom's for our classes: Stephanie Martin, martinjstephanie@yahoo.com (Mrs. Gordon's class) or Teresa
Bowling, ltbowling@bellsouth.net
(Mr. Desin's class).
Thank you very much!
