ALL SYSTEMS GO FOR FUN FAIR 2016 IN 20 DAYS!
Wristband/Ticket Pre-Sales Happening for 10 More Days!
Please click this link to purchase wristband and ticket pre-sales online. Please click here if you prefer to pay by check or cash by filling out the form and returning it to Chesterbrook School via backpack mail.
Over 100 Adult Volunteers Still Needed!
An event of this magnitude takes many adult and middle/high school volunteers to make it happen. The students have almost filled all their slots. Now, it is time for the adults to sign up. Think of signing up with a friend or consider a double shift as we offer a free lunch to those who sign up for multiple shifts. Many thanks in advance to our awesome Chesterbrook Community who always come through.
Class Basket Raffle Item Donations Due ASAP!!
The class basket raffle items are always the highlight of Fun Fair! Please help out the basket raffle committee by getting in your donations as soon as possible. It takes a lot of time to assemble/buy the items for the baskets. The earlier the contributions come in, the more time the committee has to shop. Don't have time to shop? Consider a cash or check donation made payable to Chesterbrook PTA attention: basket raffles. Please click this link for more detailed information regarding specific grade themes.

Many Thanks! Jennifer Von Elm and Hope Perlish
