Our staff at Adams Road are amazing and we don’t want the year to end without a chance to celebrate them and show them how much we’ve appreciated their dedication over the year. We will be having a special Staff Appreciation Lunch on FRIDAY, JUNE 16 and would love your help! We are looking for parents to help provide a delicious dish, as well as help with setting up & cleaning up after the event. If you are interested, please click on the link below to go to the sign-up sheet. www.volunteersignup.org/3P7HA (Please respond right away if you are able to help!) If you would like to contribute financially to cover any extra expenses, please leave your money at the office in the envelope labeled “Staff Lunch - PAC.” Reminder: We have a number of staff & students with severe nut allergies, so please do not bring any foods containing these items. If you have any questions, please feel free to contact Andrea Ashton (andrea_ashton@telus.net) Thank-you for your continued support! |

Adams Road Fun Fair
Friday, May 26th | 5 - 8pm!
It is that time to step up and volunteer to help make our fun fair a huge success! |
|
CakesTo make our cake walk a success we ask that you donate as many cakes or cupcakes as you would like! The cakes/cupcakes don’t have to be homemade they can be store bought. Please ensure that all items are nut free! We will have a judging contest and the top 5 decorated cakes will win a free punch card! These items can be brought to the school on Friday, May 26 and dropped off before 11:30am in the multi-purpose room. Decorated cake judging will take place at 12:00pm. If you are bringing store bought cakes or do not want your cakes judged we will be accepting cakes until 2:30pm. Please ensure your child’s name and division is on the cake if you would like it judged. |
|
Candy DonationsWe will be welcoming buckets of sealed candy for our candy game for Fun Fair. If you would like to help by donating a volunteer sign up sheet will be sent out the first week of May.
|
|
Raffle Baskets
There will be an email and sign up sheet sent to your classroom to sign up for items we hope to have donated for raffle baskets or for the candy game. Each Division has been assigned a theme. Money is always a welcome donation to fill missing needed items. All donations and money have to be received by Thursday, May 4.
Volunteer hours We want you to enjoy the fair with your child but it takes the hard work of many volunteers to pull off this event. There will be a sign up sheet online to volunteer at the beginning of May. We will advertise when this is posted. We will need volunteer hours to cover from 4:30pm until 8:30pm on Friday, May 26.
Game Punch CardsThe Munchalunch website will be open for ordering of pre-sales as of April 18. We require all pre-sale orders and payment no later than May 5th. After May 5th the full price will be charged for punch cards and will be available on the day of the fair based on availability.
We encourage you to order through pre-sales as the prices will be substantially lower until May 5. Pre-sales give us a good idea of how many punch cards to provide and how many prizes to purchase so please order early and save money! Punch cards will be sent home with your child on Thursday May 18th. Do not lose these as there are no refunds!
PLEASE NOTE: Punch Cards are $8.00 each (a previous handout incorrectly said $6.50)
|
|
Food TrucksWe are trying something different this year! We have a few food trucks attending our fun fair this year. There will be no presales.
Food trucks will be set up to purchase food directly through the trucks from 5:00-8:00pm. We will have two trucks - Wings and Red’s Poutine. Please expect long food lines especially if purchasing over the dinner rush. We will have a concession set up to sell drinks only. The Cotton Candy Kids will be there selling Cotton Candy and Sno Cones as well. |

The PAC is looking to create a list of people who are willing to be contacted when 'one-off' help is required. |
|
| When help is required, we will send an email to the group. Whoever is able to help at that time responds! An easy way to help out... could be counting flyers, writing thank-you cards or making a poster. |
