Our Dan’s Fish Fry is Friday, March 6, 5:00-8:00PM at the Knights of Columbus Hall. Each family has 18 tickets to sell. Look over the enclosed forms and sell all of your tickets. This is a crucial fundraiser for us, and advanced ticket sales help a lot! Tickets and money should be turned in by February 28. If you lose your tickets or money, or do not turn in unsold tickets or money, the school will bill you for the value of the missing tickets.
If you can volunteer to help out before, during or after the Fish Fry, please contact PTO member Aaron Fisher at theaaronmfisher@gmail.com or 765.702.5978. We need people to bread the fish, wait tables, and clean up after the dinner.
