Rent The Rock
NEW for 2020! As an added benefit of renting the rock, we'd like to help you celebrate your special occasion...virtually. We are offering a virtual shoutout on our Penny Road PTA Facebook page to those families who have rented the rock as many families are not in school to see the rock this year. If you'd like for your rock to be featured on our Facebook page, please send a picture of your finished rock to: preptaofficer@gmail.com. Your rock will be featured at the end of your rental month, along with the other families who have rented the rock throughout the month. Please note that this virtual shoutout is optional, your rock will only be featured if you send us a picture to use.
