Sally Foster runs my life each fall. I volunteer to be our schools' fundraising chair with my friend, Rachel. We've done it for 5 years and each year we think we have it down but there always seems to be a glitch of some kind. This year, as we were ready to pass out the packets to the teachers, we found out labels for 5 classes weren't printed and we didn't have enough packets to send home with the kids. Frantically, about an hour before school got out, we got the packets and labeled and stapled flyers to each of them. It was a crazy day but the rest of the sale is going well (so far).
Our display turned out really cute this year. We were chosen as a pilot school to run a "Go Wild" incentive program where the kids can win a beanie stuffed zoo animal. It seems to be working well and the kids really like them. Natalie received one yesterday and has taken it everywhere with her today, even to dance.
I have another few weeks of this craziness but it certainly is worth it when we see how much it supports our PTA. So we'll keep our fingers crossed for another great year of Sally Foster!
