Tricky Tray Committee Appeal for Volunteers

Dear Friends of the Wanaque School Tricky Tray,
 
      We are reaching out to parents for some helping hands this year.  Many parents who have worked the Tricky Tray have children who have graduated or have moved, so we need new faces and many hands to put together our largest fundraiser.

     Currently we have some parents willing to take over the solicitation of the local businesses but they need help for five willing people to solicit the town businesses for donations. We do Wanaque,  Ringwood, Pompton Lakes, Oakland and reach as far as Riverdale. Also, we have been  looking for the person who would begin to hit the larger companies out there that require requesting donations by Internet. Soliciting isn't a  hard job; some people hate it and others were born for it. Are you that person? We need you!  Please contact Karen Branciforte at 973-616-7255 or email her at rotorooternj@cs.com if you are interested.  Maybe even you and a friend would like to do a town together. For any student in the upper grades who needs community service,  this is an opportunity for you and your child  to work together.

Giving Tree

On the bulletin board across from the office is hung The Giving Tree.
The Giving Tree is a wonderful tool for parents to show teachers how special we think they are. The PTA has asked each teacher to take inventory in their classroom and make a list of items they need to make their teaching experience — and the students’ learning experience — a better one!

When you purchase an item, feel free to deliver that item personally to the teacher or classroom after school hours, or have your child bring it in and mention it is part of the Giving Tree. You are always welcome to contact someone on the Giving Tree committee to make arrangements for the delivery.


Please download the PDF flyer for more information
