Dear Parents of Willow River,

We are asking that the Kindergarten-2nd grade families provide the Breakfast items. They will need to be delivered to the school on Monday, May 2 by 7:15 a.m. We will have someone directing you to the teachers lounge for drop off of food.
· 6 Families to donate one dozen muffins or bagels
· 4 Families to provide baked bread (banana, chocolate chip, etc)

We are asking for families with children in 3rd-5th grade to provide the following items for a
Taco Lunch on Tuesday, May 3. All food needs to be dropped off by 10:30 am. You may send
it to school with your child and then they can drop it off in the office.

beer will need to be turned into the office on Wednesday , May 4 by 1:00.

Teacher Appreciation Week
Dear Parents of Willow River,
National Teacher Appreciation week is coming, May 2 – 6. The Parent Group has created a committee to organize efforts to show our teachers and our staff our appreciation. But they can’t do it without your help! Please show your appreciation by providing a donation to the event.
Some of your donations will be used as prizes in drawings that the teachers will enter throughout the week. Others will go into small gift bags for the teachers.
Donation suggestions include:
· Gift certificates
· Office/classroom supplies
· New or unused gifts
· Monetary donations
Many of us have access to items from our workplace or personal businesses that would make great donations. Consider donating discontinued or retired products, excess samples, or other promotional materials. We would be happy to display or distribute business cards and/or advertising materials with your donations.
Please bring your donations to the school office by April 28, or contact the Willow River Parent Group to make other arrangements. Your child may also drop them off in the office or with their teacher. Please indicate that this is for Teacher/Staff Appreciation Day.
Thank you for supporting our teachers!

How to preregister: Send a check made out to WRPG in an envelope labeled Pump It UP with your child. Also enclosed the signed waiver in the envelope.

Who will watch your kids?
The fun and friendly staff will provide supervision in the inflatable arenas! We will have a couple of parents remain on site to help shuttle kids to the restrooms.
A WAIVER signed by a parent/guardian & SOCKS are required. Parents may drop children off with the signed waiver, or wait in the building. There is a maximum play area capacity of 75. So the more parents that choose to play, it may limit the number of children allowed in. Hopefully we reach the capacity and the kids all have a fun way to burn some energy on a day away from school!
