Candy Man was also a huge success with a profit of $22308.00. That was better than last year. A huge THANK YOU goes out to Robin Hinton. Without her this would not have been such a huge success.

Box Tops….. Melinda Ramsey

Just 10 labels a month from each family would earn our school $10,000!!

Tyson labels are worth .25cents.

Nestle Pure Life (bottled water) labels- please send those into the school.

Please put all labels in a Ziploc bag and put the teachers name on it. They can be turned into the homeroom teachers. Please neatly trim the labels before turning them in. Melinda would really appreciate the help.

12 members and 4 officers. Please consider joining the booster club!!

Basketball season starts Nov 13th. Concessions will be served at all home games. Bring the family out and help support our school!

All membership moneys go back into the school.

Book Fair- Please contact Elizabeth Barnhill if you can help in anyway.

Pajama night will be Nov 26th from 5-7. Administration and teachers will be reading stories to the children while parents are free to shop at the book fair. It will be a great time to get some Christmas shopping done.

Sonic Night(Zebulon) 5-8pm Every 3rd Thursday

Every 3rd Thursday will be East Wake Academy night. 10% of ALL sales will go to EWA. The time is from 5-8. This is wonderful chance to raise money doing something we all do every night, EAT DINNER. Last year Zebulon Elementary raised $10,000. So please take the family to the Sonic in Zebulon on the 3rd Thursday of every month. It will make a difference in our school.
