Samuelson Family Fun Night is just two months away and we need parents to help plan several parts of the night. One family has handled these activities in addition to planning the all of the other activities and coordinating volunteers each year. But since their time at Samuelson is all most done, other families are needed to help this year and in the future. If youd like to help, or have any questions, please leave a comment here or send us a message. 1. Kitchen - In the past weve served pizza, popcorn and pop during Fun Night. We need a parent volunteer to coordinate the kitchen this year - handle the pizza order, seek pop donations, make sure we have the needed paper supplies, oversee the kitchen during Fun Night and make sure the kitchen is cleaned up after the event is over. 2. Door Prizes - In the past weve had Door Prizes worth around $10 for students attending Fun Night. The students really enjoy hearing their name called when theyve won. This involves contacting local businesses to ask for donations, making sure donations are delivered to school prior to Fun Night and is something that could easily be done by a couple parents working together. 3. Kid of Character Baskets - School staff uses Fun Night week to remind students about the Pillars of Character (Trustworthiness; Respect; Responsibility; Fairness; Caring; and Citizenship). Students earn raffle tickets from staff by displaying the Pillars and then use the tickets to vote for their favorite themed baskets. One student will win each basket. Families in each classroom are asked to donate inexpensive items for their basket. A volunteer is needed to coordinate this project: decide the basket themes (usually each grade has a theme, but each room has their own basket), gather the basket supplies (reimbursed by PTO), make sure classrooms have donation boxes, and assemble the baskets with other volunteers. Our first Fun Night Planning meeting will be Tuesday, January 13 in the school library following the regular PTO meeting at 6:30 pm. We hope to see you there!
