Fun Fest

Fun Fest was a HUGE SUCCESS! Thank you everyone who came, and everyone who volunteered! Big thanks to our awesome Fun Fest Chairs Angela Martin and Nancy Jarmulowicz for all their time and hard work ... it is no small feat to coordinate all of the many elements that go into this event. Please make sure to take a moment to thank them in person or even drop them a note or email of thanks for all they did!

How about a new HDTV?

We already told you about the iPod Touch that we would be selling raffle tickets for at Fun Fest (Friday, February 4). Item #2 that you will be able to purchase raffle tickets for : a class 42" Plasma Panasonic HDTV (720p 600Hz ). The approximate retail value is $600.

Again, items will actually be raffled of the night of Spring To It (Saturday, March 12), but you can start buying your tickets at Fun Fest!

All proceeds will benefit WPPA, and of course go straight towards funding fantastic things at Wilshire Park. Stay tuned for two more exciting items that we will be pre-selling tickets for and raffling off on March 12.

Let Us Eat Cake

Everyone loves a Cake Walk! We are looking for donations for this favorite Fun Fest game. Drop off your store-bought treats at the school office next week between Tuesday, February 1 and Friday, February 4. Bonus ... you get Fun Fest game tickets for each item donated!

Also, Fun Fest chairs are looking for someone to help coordinate this piece of the event. Volunteer would 1) keep track of cakes/items donated and 2) be available the day of Fun Fest (February 4) to help shop for additional items if needed.

Questions or want to help? Email Angela M.

Bikes!

A big huge thanks to the St. Anthony Lions Club for their donation of two bikes! WPPA will be raffling off these bikes (both 20", one boys one girls -- actual color may vary) at Fun Fest on Friday, February 4. Proceeds from the raffle will go directly to WPPA.
