Penny Bazaar – October 31

Posted on by Janis DeVore

Penny Bazaar is almost here! As per All Saints tradition, we will be having our annual afternoon of fun and cupcakes on Thursday, October 31st. This event will be held in the back parking lot from 1:30- 2:30pm. All classes have set up Track it Forward signups for volunteer and donation slots. Please be sure to check your class’s listing for opportunities to earn points for parents. We are asking that each family donate a bag of party favors to their child’s classroom so that we will have enough prizes to give out for each game played. Please send your child to school that day with a bag of pennies or coins, as well as an additional bag to carry their goodies in. Thank you for helping us make this day of fun and school community building a success!

Please send your child to school with a bag of pennies, and a bag to hold their prizes in.  Each game will cost a penny to play, and cupcakes can be bought for $0.10.

Parents are welcome to attend the event and are encouraged to volunteer or donate items.  All volunteers must be VIRTUS compliant. It’s a great way to earn Points!

Welcome the Pilgrim Virgin Statue Home

The presence of the Pilgrim Virgin Statue is certain to increase your devotion to Mary and to bring you and your family closer to her Son.
