| Halloween Family Fun Night |
|
 Knock. Knock. Who's there?
Boo! Boo Who?
Ah, don't cry, Halloween Family Fun Night is coming soon!
That's right! The annual Halloween Family Fun Night, Saturday October 25 from 6:00-7:30, is right around the corner. Join us for a fun-filled night of Halloween games & crafts, music, and treats. EVERYONE is invited and EVERYONE is encouraged to wear a costume (no scary masks please). This FREE event is sponsored by the PTO.
The Halloween Family Fun night is run entirely by parent volunteers. So if you haven't signed up yet, there are more volunteer forms outside the two main entrances to the school. Consider donating your time to help decorate the school Friday night (10/24), to run a game or craft, or to contribute a snack or drink for the treat table. There are many ways to get involved.
 This is a really fun, well-attended event that every year just keeps getting better. COME AND HAVE A GREAT TIME!
For more information about how you can get involved-give a scream to any of us on the Boo Crew:
