More volunteers needed please

I am asking again for help.  Some parents and teachers have already volunteer and for that I am deeply greatful!  We still need help with both the bookfair and with the Family Reading Night.
Here is a list of hours we need help with the book fair:

Monday 4:30 -5:30
Tuesday 3:15-5:30 and during the event 6:30-7:30
Wednesday 3:15-4:30
Thursday 4:30-5:30

For Family Reading Night, we still need volunteers to help serve food, and work the sales table, any shift between 5:30 and 7:00pm

Don't forget, Springfield Cardinals tickets are now on sale.  The seats are in field box C, near 1st base.  Tickets are $9.00 each for both students and adults.  Place your orders early, we only have 45 left!
Thank you for all you do to make Bingham an amazing school and safe place for our children!

Family Literacy Night and Spring Book Fair

Hello everyone!

I hope you have been enjoying the warmer weather :)

We have some upcoming events I want to share with you.  The discount card fundraiser will end on April 15.  All orders need to be turned into the office by then.  Beginning April 25, PTA will be selling field box tickets to the May 7, Springfield Cardinals game for Bingham Spirit Night.  Tickets are $9.00 each, and will be available until May 3rd.

On May 3rd we will have our Families are Wild about Literacy Night from 5:30 to 7:00pm.  Presenters will be reading stories about various animals--and some animals will be there too-- in the classrooms and Dickerson Park Zoo will also be on hand with animals.  There is no cost to attend, but PTA will be selling concessions in the gym such as pizza, cupcakes, chips and soda.  We will also be raffling off 50 free books and doing a raffle for any remaining Cardinals tickets ($1.00 raffle ticket per chance).  PTA could use about 5 volunteers to help with serving food, assisting teachers and raffle sales.

During the week of May 2-6, PTA will host our Spring Buy one Get one Free Book Fair.  The fair will be open before and after school and during Literacy Night.  I am looking for some volunteers to work after school hours.  Any times between 3:15 and 5:30 M,W,Th,F would be great and Tues 3:15-7:30 times are also available.  Additionally, we need some stuffed animals to decorate the book fair in our Wild About Animals theme.

Email PTA or call Shannon if you can help!
