Coke Sales Start Today!!!

Mr. Woosley kicked of the first day of our Coke Sales Fundraiser in a SUPER way with a great assembly this afternoon. 

You should have received information regarding this fundraiser in your child's backpack either on Friday or this afternoon.  The sale will run through August 31 and all orders and money are due on that Friday, August 31.

Coca-Cola products are $18.00 for a case of 20 oz bottles (24 bottles to each case) and Powerade products are $21.00 per case.  Our goal is for each student to sell five cases.  There are several great prizes that the students can win, including $100 in cash for the school's top seller!

If you child sells 3 cases of drinks and brings in his/her order sheet for their teacher to check by this Friday, August 24, they will earn a trip to the park with Mr. Woosley that afternoon.

If you child sells a total of 5 or more cases and turns in all orders and money by next Friday, August 31, they will earn a trip to the park with Mr. Woosley that afternoon.  So they have a chance to win two trips to the park!!!

There are also prizes for 2nd and 3rd place overall sellers as well as prizes for classrooms, too. Please see your information sheet for all the prizes and pick up date.

The money raised from this fundraiser will be used to pay for the parade float, fall festival expenses, replenish our general fund and go toward our Goal Project of purchasing new technology. 

Please help South Edmonson reach our goal by participating in this great fundraiser!!  Your help and generosity is always appreciated.
