Our event allows for our students to trick or treat in a safe environment from trunk to trunk in the secured DeSales parking lot. This event is free. We only ask that each family provides one bag of candy per participating child.
Most importantly, we need a head (trunk) count. Please return the registration form (linked below) to school as soon as possible. The deadline for trunk registration is Monday, October 16th, 2023.
Volunteers needed: We would like to make our 2023 Trunk or Treat event a great success, but that cannot happen without your help! Please consider signing up using the link below:

The Champion Project
The Champion Project is excited to announce the FALL VOLLEYBALL CLINIC - BRING A FRIEND CHALLENGE! This clinic is open to boys and girls grades 4th-6th. Thanks to funding from the Volley Power grant and the Ralph C. Wilson Jr., Foundation, this clinic is NO COST! Space is limited!
All participants sign up with a friend (or sibling) and spend the clinic working with their partner. This is a great opportunity to introduce a friend to volleyball, or just have a fun day with a current teammate!
If you are interested in trying out/signing up for the TCP Academy travel or house teams, this clinic is also a great opportunity to check out the gym and meet some coaches!
Visit the CAMPS AND CLINICS page for more information and registration.
