Thank you all that came out and supported the St. Mark PSA ornament fundraiser! We reached our goal of selling 50 ornaments and we had a lot of fun! The funds raised from this event will go to the classrooms of St. Marks to support classroom events! Thank you!
Maybe we need a new mascot? 🐉
Join us tonight for Ornament Craft Night, a PSA fundraiser for our school! Art at the Bodega will be here in our school gym with ornaments for you to paint! They will then take them to their business and glaze them and ornaments can then be picked up at school at a later date! Each ornament is $15, and will raise $3 that will go directly to funds for our school's classrooms! You do not have to RSVP, but if you know for sure that you'd like to attend and have not previously RSVP'd, you can email Sarah Hultgren at shultgren@saint-mark.net and let her know how many ornaments you'd like to RSVP for! Thank you and looking forward to a fun night with family and friends!
Put this date on your calendar because you won't want to miss it! Our Annual Santa Breakfast is sure to be a great time full of yummy food, great friends and all the Christmas magic!
