ONE DAY UNTIL THE JAMBOREE!!!

I can't believe tomorrow is Friday!  Many parents who volunteer their time to the school have been working on overdrive this past week, not only organizing the Honeybee Jamboree, but also Teacher Appreciation Week.  As we continued to plan for the big Jamboree for this Saturday, we were also able to celebrate and give back to our caring, hard-working and dedicated teachers with a Apple Day on Monday:  homemade apple muffins, apple cake and apple pie; a Snack Day on Tuesday:  cheeses, crackers, fruit, and more; a home-cooked spaghetti and meatballs lunch on Wednesday:  no kidding, I cooked it at home and wheeled it over in a stroller.  Today, the teachers received single roses wrapped and hand-delivered in front of the whole school, as well as another homemade cake:  strawberry with cream cheese strawberry frosting.  YUM!

Tomorrow is the grand finale as we heat up the griddle for our 2nd annual Principal Pancake Breakfast. Yes, Mr. Tang will don an apron and flip some flapjacks for his deserving staff.  This was Mr. Tang's idea last year.  He really wanted to cook for the teachers.  And as he is no kind of slacker, he scrambled up some eggs as well!

With our bellies full, the teachers will go back to teach and we parent volunteers, a.k.a., the PTO, will get back to preparing for the HONEYBEE JAMBOREE!!  This is our last day to set up, gather our last promised sponsorships and pre-sell the tickets!  We will sell tickets on the day of the Jamboree as well, but this is the last chance to get them at a pre-sell discounted rate.  You save up to 25% by buying in advance.

Tickets are good for all the games and food (except the bubble tea) and can even buy you an all-day pass on the jumpy slide!

We also have raffle tickets with some great prizes to win:  cash prizes, restaurant gift certificates, spa gift certificates and more!  You do not need to be present to win in the raffle, so buy your tickets online, sit back and win, win, win!  Click here to buy your tickets!
