From Melissa Meinders

Hello 5th grade parents! Just want to touch base. The chili supper will be coming up soon and each grade has a basket we put together. Our basket is a Milwaukee Tool set. I purchased our items over Christmas. This is a $300 basket. If anyone could donate what you can towards the basket that would great! PayPal, Venmo, or cash is fine.

The JCO will begin selling online tickets for each grades basket next week, January 12th. More will be shared about that soon.

PayPal is @MelissaMeinders

Venmo is @Melissa-Meinders
