June 16th BBQ was a huge success!
We hope everyone had a great time at the BBQ on June 16! We really appreciate the support, whether you dedicated time to volunteer or simply enjoyed food and games with your kids at the BBQ.
A special thanks to all of the parents who volunteered with the set up, food stand, grill, concession, silent auction table, and more - Adriano, Alex, Amanda, Bill, Christina, Claudia, Dale, Dannella, David, Ewa, Joann, Karen, Mandy, Marcelina, Melanie, Regina, Ruta, Sean, Sonya, Suresh, and Tyler. This event would not be possible without you!
And a big thanks to the many, many parents who also helped with clean up at the end of the day!
And of course, thanks to Ms. Karen, our school principal, for all she has done for the school, including picking up the new PAC/school sound system, just in time for Sports Day and the BBQ.
Finally, a special thanks toall to Save on Foods and Superstore for providing the food for our event. We really appreciate their contribution. To all of our sponsors, thank you for your support. We truly appreciate you.
