**HAPPENING NOW**

WALDEN RAFFLE BASKETS

Our biggest fundraiser of the year is upon us! Walden's raffle baskets brought in thousands of dollars in 2022, and we're hoping for an even greater outcome this year. But...we need your help! Please think of any connections you may have to local businesses that would be interested in donating a gift certificate or physical item to our school. We welcome any contributions, and would especially love to raffle off sports tickets or vacations this year.


Please send your ideas to Heather Schwartz (hrs5581@gmail.com) or Hillary Teven (hillaryteven@gmail.com).


We are grateful to already have commitments from several businesses and don't want to duplicate our efforts, so please don't reach out to businesses on your own before you touch base with Heather or Hillary.

DEERFIELD DISCOUNT CARDS

if you did not pick up your Deerfield Discount Card, it will be sent home with your child by the end of next week. Thanks for supporting our school & local businesses!


If you have questions, please email PTOWalden@gmail.com.
