| "PROJECT PLAYGROUND" We are still in the fundraising stage of "Project Playground". Our current balance is $13,494.96. Our minimum goal is $50,000, so we do have a ways to go!! Our current playground is becoming increasingly dangerous for the children. This year alone the ambulance has been called twice for injuries, that is not counting the daily injuries that the children come to the office with. Sections of the playground have already been removed. The children are very excited about getting a new playground but we can not give that to them without a community that does not support us! Picket orders are still being taker. Do you have yours? They are $35.00 per picket. You can personalize them with up to 17 letters. Thanks you to those who have purchased their pickets, your support is greatly appreciated! |

| **HELP WANTED!! IF YOU HAVE ONE HOUR A MONTH, WE NEED YOU!! You can make a difference for our school and your children. Without members, the Parent Teacher Group can not do as much as they would like! Get involved, the kids are counting on you! |
| There will be no PTG Meeting for July & August. Meetings will resume Sept.11, 2006 |
| **Important Facts** Q: What does the PTG exactly do? A: We provide for teacher requests, such as new gym equipment, partial field trip payments, educational materials for classrooms, we buy all the Santa's Express items and so much more. We are giving the staff a catered lunch for Appreciation Week, obviously it is our funds that will build the new playground. This is why it is important to participate in the fundraisers. Q: How can you help/make a difference? A: By attending our monthly meetings. We understand everyone is busy with sports etc. but we are too and we still give our time to keep the PTG running. You can also help by signing up on our volunteer list. |
