Student Shopping Dates: December 12th and 13th
What is it?
The Holiday Bazaar: The PTO collects no longer needed items from the CES community to supply the Holiday Bazaar. All items should be in good condition- gently used or new.
Students are given the opportunity to purchase holiday gifts for their loved ones for 25 cents per item! Your child brings in a list of up to 4 adult family members and all siblings, a quarter for each person on their list and a reusable grocery bag to bring home the items (for 4 family members, it is okay to send a 1 dollar bill). They get to choose a gift from our expansive donation tables and experience the joy of giving during the Holiday season!
What we need to make this happen:
WE NEED DONATIONS!!! Clean out your closets & drawers and donate unwanted items that our children can then purchase for a quarter each.
IDEAS: Unused Bottle of Lotion, Candles, Women’s purses & accessories, Jewelry, Photo frames, Holiday decorations, Children’s toys, games, books, Video Games, Men’s ties, Trinkets, Tools, DVD’s, Coffee Mugs, Cookbooks, Knick-Knacks, Puzzles, etc.
***PLEASE- NO VHS Tapes, stuffed animals, or clothing (except for men’s ties)***
All items should fit in a grocery bag because the children will have to carry these items home on the bus.
******ITEMS FOR MEN/TEENAGERS/TOYS FOR ALL AGES ARE ESPECIALLY NEEDED*****
PLEASE Spread the word! Donations are the only source of gifts for this event. If you have any questions, contact Dana Brandow at cl90dab@yahoo.com.
