PTSA sure has been keeping all four of us busy! This past week we were buried under projects to prepare for the membership drive which was held at Chick-Fil-A. In the past, the membership drive was held at the school where a spaghetti dinner was served. While it was nice to have it at school, it also meant that the PTSA had to set up the eating area and pay all the school staff who'd need to work extra hours. Chick-Fil-A has a program that allows schools to hold fundraisers in their restaurant and a percentage of each purchase would go towards our program. This also means no set up or take down and we could focus on drawing people in with raffles and giveaways. It turned out great with about 100 families from our school coming to have dinner as well as other community members who helped out just because they were there! I think the best part for the kids that came was seeing their teachers helping out . That night it poured rain nearly the entire time. The principal spent the evening drenched, escorting guests into the restuarant under an umbrella! What a great thing for the kids to see. All around, it was a great night!
