Special thanks to the parents that helped to set this event up, and those that helped deliver the beverages this morning.
Further thanks to Blanchard families that have able to donate to the No-Fuss Fundraiser! These small tokens of appreciation would not be possible without support of your PTO! If you haven't and are able, we hope you'll consider a donation today!
