Relay Fun!

For the past two weeks, we've been very busy getting ready for Relay for Life.  So far, we've raised $175 in donations, as well as $100 in our recent "Hat Day." Tonight, we put a lot of effort into planning our penny war for next week. We got the containers ready, made signs, and recorded some awesome video announcements.  We plan to offer a "Cookie Buffet" to the homeroom that raises the most money and the homeroom that collects the most pennies.  That means we'll be baking a LOT of cookies at one of our upcoming meetings. (Don't worry--We'll be sure to sample them before giving them away.)  Another cool thing is that every person who donates a dollar to the penny drive will get a raffle ticket. We'll be drawing six (2 per grade) "Choose Your Lunch Color" passes for the winners of the drawings.  We're having a lot of fun and are really excited about hopefully reaching our goal of raising $3000 for Relay for Life.
