It’s almost time for Holidays at Hurricane! For those of you that don’t know, this is the largest fundraiser for our school. It helps provide the school and teachers with so many things like playground equipment, furniture, classroom supplies and even fun events and parties. We turn the whole school into a winter wonderland complete with over 70 vendors. There will be raffle prizes, a bake sale, an auction for the amazing baskets our parents are contributing to, and even Santa! This is a huge event and we really need all hands on deck to help out. Here is the signup for the event. If you can only contribute a short amount of time, that is totally fine. Any help appreciated. And all volunteers for free entry and a free raffle entry. https://m.signupgenius.com/#!/showSignUp/5080549A9AE28AAFF2-holidays If you can’t help out this weekend, we encourage you to come out and shop!
