RALPH ASKINS FALL BLAST

FRIDAY, OCTOBER 30TH, 2009

3:30 P.M. TO 7:00 P.M.

 

 

Excitement is building!!!!!!!  Fall Blast is near!!!!!!  Come and join us during the outrageously fun fall festival we have planned for you and your family.  To bring new fun to our great fair, we have added a few new games and activities for you to enjoy.  Whether you’re trying your hand at putt putt golf, sliding down an inflatable slide, knocking the ping pong balls from the bottles, cosmic bowling, or the many more activities you will be guaranteed a fun filled family affair.  Of course, we have kept many of the old favorites such as the

Cake walk, lollipop tree, and pickup ducks (just to name a few).  Fall Blast is just one of the two fund-raisers sponsored by the PTO each year.

 

How is it a fundraiser?

Paint the Principal:  This is a classroom competition.  About two weeks prior to Fall Blast, students are encouraged to bring money into their classrooms.  The CLASS that brings in the most money wins the chance to spray Mr. Hastings (the school principal) with silly string during an assembly on October 29th.  Mr. Hastings is such a great sport and really acts silly with the children.  In addition, the top 3 classrooms that raise the most money will have money deposited into their teacher’s classroom account.  The teachers use these accounts to help purchase items needed in their classroom.

 

COLLECTION DATE FOR PAINT THE PRINCIPAL:

THURSDAY, OCTOBER 22ND

THURSDAY, OCTOBER 29TH

(ALL MONEY COLLECTED MUST BE TURNED IN TO PTO BY 10:00 A.M. ON THESE DAYS)

 

        ****The top 3 classrooms each collection day will receive an ice cream party.

        ****The overall top 3 classrooms that bring in the most money will receive a pizza party.

 

TICKETS:  These will be sold at the front lobby and the gymnasium hallway entrance the day of Fall Blast.  Each game or activity is organized by a different class and cost a certain number of tickets.  Most games or activities will cost 1 or 2 tickets.  Tickets are .50 cents each. Tickets will stop being sold at 6:30 p.m. Teachers will be sending home notes asking for donations of candy, juice boxes, cakes, etc. that your child’s class may need as prizes for the activity that their class or grade may be responsible for during the Fall Blast.
