The Book Fair (which raises a ton of money for our library!) and Book Swap are organized by the WP Media Center. Mrs. Frudden (the art teacher) coordinates all the beautiful student artwork for the Art Fair. And of course, WPPA provides the ice cream as a fun treat and community builder. Thanks to Ruth Forsline, who chaired this effort, and to all the parents who helped scoop the 625 cups of ice cream we gave away!
Culver's generously provided the cups, spoons and napkins and use of the cooler for free, and offered the ice cream to us at cost.
And speaking of Culver's, mark your calendars for Monday, May 11 from 5-8 p.m. Culver's is hosting another fundraiser for Wilshire Park to raise money for the STEM program. During that time a portion of all sales goes back to the school. At the first event last week about $400 was raised!
So come if you can. Not only is an easy way to help raise money for the STEM program, but it makes for a cooking-free night and gives families the opportunity to connect with one another outside of school. Hope to see you there!
