RAFFLE

Have you purchased your Freaky Friday raffle tickets?  You might want to buy a few more, because there are some great prizes!!!  This year we have lots of toys that the kids will love, as well as a few items that the adults will enjoy.  And we don’t just have one great bike as in years past, but two fabulous bikes that any child would love to have.  Still need more temptation to purchase some raffle tickets?  We have an iPod Touch that some lucky person is going to win!!!!  Tickets are $1 each and they are currently on sale before and after school in the front hallway.


NOT JUST YOUR AVERAGE HAUNTED HOUSE

This year we are presenting a new version of the Haunted House at Freaky Friday. A special ten minute show with computerized special effects is sure to entertain people of all ages. Shows are offered every 15 minutes. The first show is at 5:30 and we will take the first 24 people at the door. After that, you must have a reservation to see the show. Reservations can be made during Freaky Friday at the Freaky Friday Information Counter in the front hallway of the school. For the price of five tickets, you will be given a reservation card for a show at your preferred time. At show time, simply head on over to the drama portable, present your reservation card, take your seat, and get ready for some real Halloween fun!
