Weekly Blog 5/20

Dear Wines Families,

It’s hard to believe that the Country Fair and Auction is just over a week away. Included in today’s email was information from our organizing committee. In addition, there were two important attachments. The first is information all about the fair including Cake Walk information, ticket sales, and information about the raffle. The second attachment has pictures of the amazing classroom projects that were created by students that will be available at this year’s auction. In addition, we have some information from Girls on the Run in today’s email.

The Raffle/Silent Auction is Around the Corner!
