The Insider's Guide to the Saturday, March 13th Fun Fair (For New Families and Those Who Have Forgotten How Things Worked Last Year!)
 
The Chesterbrook PTA and Chesterbrook Staff look forward to seeing you at the Fun Fair on Saturday from 10:00 AM - 2:00 PM.  The Fair goes on rain or shine!  All events are indoors.  Bring the whole family. There will be lots of fun games, activities and yummy food!! 
 
Where should I park?  You can park in the Chesterbrook school lot, at the First Baptist Church (1740 Kirby Road), or at Chesterbrook Pool (1812 Kirby Road).  Please be sure to be considerate to our neighbors and choose only legal parking spots!
 
New!!  Won't I get soaked? No!  Free shuttle buses will be running from the First Baptist Church and Chesterbrook Pool parking lots to and/from the school from 9:30 to 2:30. 
 
Where do I report for volunteer duty? Sign in at the Volunteer Table in the Chesterbrook school lobby 15 minutes before your shift begins (9:45 for AM shift and 11:45 for PM shift).  Volunteer staff can give you directions on the location and/or timing of your assignment.
 
I thought I ordered tickets but didn't receive them?  We've been working really hard to make sure that all orders placed by the cutoff date March 8th were processed. Please be sure to check your child's backpack and their March 11th Thursday folder since this is the last distribution point for pre-sale tickets. The tickets are packaged in paper, a letter envelope or a plastic bag.  If you sent in a form for pre-sale tickets after the cutoff date, your check will be returned to you.  See below for information on how to buy tickets.
 
I didn't buy tickets yet, what should I do?  No problem!  There are three ticket sale stations (front door, in hallway outside the pod near the cafeteria, and outside the interior doors of the gym). Tickets are four for a dollar and can be used to participate in activities, games and to buy food.
 
Should I eat ahead of time?  No!  Chesterbrook will have delicious pizza, hot dogs, chips, and drinks for sale in the cafeteria.  We also will be selling popcorn, cotton candy and water near the gym.  You can use tickets or money to purchase food items.  Check out other yummy snacks and desserts at the bake sale in Room 123, just off the cafeteria.  All proceeds go to the Chesterbrook PTA to benefit the school. 
 
New!!  Are the Class Baskets and Teacher Baskets really as amazing as my child says they are?  Yes!  Thank you Chesterbrook Families and Teachers for your amazing donations!  You won't believe the cool items in our baskets.  Come check them out in the cafeteria, but don't forget to buy a ticket.  You can't win if you don't play!!
 
Be sure to stay and hear Principal Bob Fuqua announce the winners at 2 pm in the cafeteria.  This is a fun event, not to be missed!
 
Will there be photo opportunities with Chester the Chipmunk? Yes, keep an eye out for Chester who will be circulating through the school.
 
Will we see my child's teacher?  Maybe!  A number of staff will be working at the Fun Fair.  You might see your teacher strolling through the halls wearing a colorful vest filled with fun toys.  Ask them about the popular "Pick-a-pocket" program.  
 
What is the Balloon Raffle?  For a $5 or $10 ticket you can purchase a Balloon Raffle Item.  Look for one of the teachers with the colorful balloons circulating in the halls.
 
New!! Where is the race track I have heard so much about?  Thanks for asking!  The race track is in the library.  Be sure to bring your race gear, coz this track is not for sissies!      
 
New!!  Is it true there are two moonbounces?  Yes, be sure to stop by the gym to check them out! 
 
New!!  I heard there is a going to be a new game in the gym, is that true?  Yes!  This year, we will have Penalty Kick for all you soccer afficionados!
 
Still have questions?  Candace Stromberg and Melinda Settles are our Fun Fair Co-Chairs and can be contacted at funfair@chesterbrook.org
