Sat. Nov. 25 Christmas Bazaar (9am-1pm)

This bazaar has been held for over 30 years!  We count on the bazaar to raise money for our playground, school trips and educational supplies for the school.  

The Cake Walk and Pop/Chip Walk are similar to a familiar game called “Musical Chairs”.  Participants will walk around a group of numbered chairs to music.  When the music stops, sit in a chair!  If the number on your chair matches the random number drawn, you win a cake if you are doing the cake walk or pop or chips if you are doing the Pop/Chip Walk.  It’s that easy!  Both these games are very popular activities. As well, we will have Lucky Squares, a Chinese Auction and a Silent Auction with many great prizes for each. 

There will be lots of games for children and there will be a Canteen selling hotdogs, popcorn and drinks.  There will be merchants selling crafts, baked goods, jewelry and more! 

WE NEED YOUR HELP AND SUPPORT for the following:

Donate a cake for the ‘Cake Walk’ – we will be requesting each class to have at least 5 cakes/cookies/squares! Please volunteer to help with this if you can!

A Dollar Store Item or $1 – for prizes A 2L bottle of pop or a big bag of chips for the Pop/Chip
