Council Delegates
Vendor Fair
The PTA Council is holding
its annual Vendor Fair from 9 a.m. to noon April 6 at First Baptist Church
on Josey Lane in Carrollton. Vendors at the fair include food companies,
candle makers, gift companies, clothing manufacturers, etc. Come to taste
free samples and to discover many fund-raising opportunities for your club,
church, soccer team or school. Admittance is free. Many vendors say our fair
is the best they attend each year!!!
Clothes Closet
The PTA Clothes Closet
is still seeking donations of gently used clothing for both sexes and all
ages. The Closet has been busier than ever this year and has served at least
92 families this school year alone! The Closet especially needs jeans, school
uniforms and new underwear. Please bring your donations to the next general
PTA meeting, or call Kristin or Sounjalynne to arrange a pickup.
If you
can help out (without kids) on a Monday morning, your volunteer hours would
be greatly appreciated! Volunteers are needed to fold and sort clothes, and
Spanish speakers may be asked to help translate for visiting clients. Families
seeking free clothing at the Clothes Closet are referred by schools throughout
CFBISD.
