GMSW PTO Announces the Fall Fundraiser and Student Incentives


We are beginning our Fall Fundraiser here at GMSW starting September 18th, and we look forward to your support.  Once again this year we are teaming up with Market Day to offer you the Life:Style brochure sale.  There is a wide variety of items offered including high quality gift wraps, magazines, scrumptious candies and many items for use around the home.   Now is a great time to start your holiday shopping!  Ask your child for the seller packet!
 
 Our goal is to raise $10,000 for improvements in the Girls and Boys Gym Locker Rooms and elsewhere around the school.

All orders and money are due by: Monday, October 1st. (Please make checks payable to GMSW-PTO)

Order Pick-up will be: Monday, October 29th from 6pm-8pm in the cafeteria.

Online shopping makes it even easier to help!  Log onto http://marketdayfundraising.com/ to invite friends and family to shop and support our group.   Register your child as a seller, enter 5 valid e-mail addresses, and your child will get a free song or ringtone download.  Internet orders must be placed by Sunday, October 7th.

We have several exciting incentives for students this year!  

·         The homeroom class with highest dollar amount sold will win a donut party.  (1 class from each grade level)

·         For every 10 items sold your child will be entered into a drawing.  If his/her name is selected he/she will get to grab as much cash as possible in one minute from the Cash Grab Booth!! (1 student from each grade level)

*GRAND PRIZE* The student with the highest dollar amount sold will win a set of Beats Headphones!

Important Safety Reminder -
Remember: start with family, friends and co-workers.  Make sure students always sell with a parent or guardian.  Do not sell door-to-door to homes of people you don’t know. 
 
Thanks for reading, and have a great week!
