It is being held October 25, 2014 from 1PM to 3PM. Come join us for great food, fun games, a silent auction, and much more. For all those who love to bake, get your aprons out! We would love to have donations of baked goods for our Bake Sale and Cake Walk. All baked items need to be in disposable containers and delivered to the school by 11AM on Saturday, October 25th. Contact Kristina Roberts for details on baked items at 843-540-7650. This year, our school is participating in the Box Tops for Education™ program and Campbell’s Labels program. Clipping Box Tops and Campbell’s Labels is an easy way for you to help our school. They quickly add up to real cash. To help our school, just look for specialized labels on products, clip them, and bring them to our school. If you have any questions, please don’t hesitate to contact me at 843-842-1251. Do you shop at Harris Teeter or Publix? If so, you can help support Daufuskie Island Elementary School by using your Harris Teeter VIC card or using a Publix Partners for Education card. For Harris Teeter all you have to do is link up your VIC card to our "Together in Education" program. For those of you who wish to link up your card stop by the customer service desk at Harris Teeter and tell them you would like to be linked to Daufuskie Elementary’s Together in Education account. Our information: Daufuskie Island Elementary School #3979. For Publix Partners use your Publix Partners card each time you check out. If you do not have a Publix Partners for Education card for Daufuskie Elementary, they will be given out at the Fall Festival being held October 25th. Neither of these programs interfere with your savings or cost you any money. The school receives a percentage of the money from your purchases, which helps us fund great programs at Daufuskie Elementary! ************************** From Melrose Resort: Join is Friday night for our low country boil and oyster roast!
