November 2025
Fall Fundraiser
The pick-up date for all fundraising items from the fall fundraiser is November 5th starting at 3:00 p.m. All frozen items, no matter if sold online or in person, will need to be picked up on that day unless the customer chose a ship to home product online. Customers that purchased popcorn online had a choice between paying extra and having them shipped to their home or shipping them to school for free. Those items sent to school will also be available for pickup at that time. Please keep in mind that we do not have freezer space to store frozen product. If you are unable to pick up the items on November 5th, please make arrangements for someone else to pick it up for you.
An effort will be made to get all physical prizes to students on pick-up night.
Field trip prizes (Portillo's Limo Lunch & Main Event) will occur sometime in November or December. Once we finalize the event dates, an email will be sent.
