Harvest Festival - This Friday, Oct 14th! This Friday, the 14th is our Harvest Festival from 4pm to 8pm. It's always one of the greatest events of the year and this year it is even bigger! We'll be bringing back some of the favorites including the Obstacle Course, Giant Slide, Train, Laser Tag and Class game booths but new this year will be the Rock Wall, Photo Booth and Giant Sized Games! We'll also have some really great Raffles, Silent Auctions and the 6th Grade Food Booth. Fliers have been sent home with our presale offer. During the presale, wristbands will be $15 each which includes unlimited games, rides and photo booth. We're also pre-selling tickets at $10 for 15 tickets (ticket values below). Orders must be received by Wednesday, October 12 for this presale price. This will be the best value so please take advantage of it as wristbands will be $20 at the festival. Please send in cash or checks made out to Pinetree PTA with the bottom of the flier (click HERE to download) or go online HERE to pay with debit/credit card. For all students who bring in a carved pumpkin, they will receive a coupon for a free sno-cone or cotton candy. We will be opening will-call for presale wristbands and tickets at 1:45 on Friday.

Anyone can volunteer - parents, grandparents, siblings, etc. Volunteer positions will be in half-hour shifts so you can volunteer and still spend time with your family. We have several positions that we need volunteers for. Click HERE to review the positions and signup. We thank you in advance for your generosity. Our great teachers and room parents will also be doing classroom game-booths. If you're interested in volunteering to help with those, please check with your student's teacher or Room-Parent.
